I have created a PPT document with a lot of graphs in it.  Yesterday I wanted
to edit one of the graphs, and when I did so , all the graphs values went to
50%.
It only happens to some of the graphs, and I have used the same method for
all of them, so I am not sure what is happening.

I know that one solution will be to re-change the values to the original
(note that if I do so, then click on edit it is working fine).

Could that be a corruption in the file?

thanks a lot for your help

Which version of PPT? Which version of Windows?

Nuts. I've seen this in PPT 2007, but not in 2003.

What does your axis scale look like (minimum and maximum) if you right-click
and choose Format Axis? Could it just be that it needs a decimal or two
added on the number format?

Hi Echo,

It has been driving crazy, so I just redid all the graphs, but I would live
to know what happened and how to fix it if that happens again.

Anyway the value are percent for the y-axis and set to automatic. Even if I
changed the max that doesn't do anything, plus some of the value are only
20%, and even those are set to 50%.

thanks again for your help and have a nice weekend
