Working with Excel charts in Word

[suroora]

I've copied an Excel chart (ie, one based on an Excel spreadsheet) into Word.
It's a bar chart with a lot of white space in the upper half. I cannot resize
it to get rid of the white space. I've tried resizing, but it doesn't work.
Can someone help?

I'm using Office 2003.

Thanks,
Suroor

Is it the white space inside the border you're trying to remove? If so, while
in Excel select the chart, right click->Format Chart Area, under Patterns
tab-> Borders, select None, and click OK. Select and paste into Word.
