MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / December 2007Cannot paste graphs / OLE Objects from Excel
Hi all I am using MS Office 2003. I have created some Charts in Excel. When I try to copy them and paste into Power Point, I cannot see the objects, just disappears. No error message of any sort. Tried to re-install MS Office package, did not help either. I will sincerely appreciate any tips / ideas how to overcome this error. PS: I get the same response from MS Word as well. Thanks and best regards.,  SignatureBashu Try changing your hardware acceleration. See How to set graphics hardware acceleration back http://www.pptfaq.com/FAQ00129.htm for instructions.

It's important to give as much precise detail as you can ... remember that we can't see anything but your words. It's up to you to make them describe what you can see. OK. No more scolding. ;-) Have you tried Help, Detect and Repair? If not, I'd definitely give that a go ----------------------------------------- Steve Rindsberg, PPT MVP PPT FAQ: www.pptfaq.com PPTools: www.pptools.com ================================================ Here is the right problem description: "You open a PowerPoint presentation and find that all of your graphics have been replaced a blank rectangle with a small red x icon in the upper left corner." But, just as an information, when I access the Terminal server using Citrix connection and use the Power Point avaialble in the Terminal server it works perfect from my same PC. Also I am trying to think how to reproduce the problem. Only thing I can remember is I installed the Power Point templates that I imported from the Microsoft site. Now I have uninstalled it. Still suffering...........

That's good to know. As I understand it, in that situation, the Citrix server's running PowerPoint and handling the video. It's just passing an image back to your PC. That suggests that your video driver isn't up to speed.

Since I work heavily with processes and I am totally handicapped. Anyway I appreciate all of you who are helping out!!! SignatureBashu > > Give this a test: > > > > How to set graphics hardware acceleration back > > http://www.pptfaq.com/FAQ00129.htm > > That was the first thing suggested ... before we knew it was a red X. I can't think of what the issue might be. Have you installed the latest service pack for Office 2003? (I think it's SP3.)

Typically, the Red X is PPT's way of saying "I can't display this graphic (for any of several reasons, but I'm not going to tell you which)." Try changing the video display resolution and color depth. Sometimes one mode will cause trouble where other modes don't. ----------------------------------------- Steve Rindsberg, PPT MVP PPT FAQ: www.pptfaq.com PPTools: www.pptools.com ================================================ > > Give this a test: > > > > How to set graphics hardware acceleration back > > http://www.pptfaq.com/FAQ00129.htm > > That was the first thing suggested ... before we knew it was a red X. Oops. So ya did. ----------------------------------------- Steve Rindsberg, PPT MVP PPT FAQ: www.pptfaq.com PPTools: www.pptools.com ================================================ Ok, I went for the final option. Re-install Windows from scratch... Back in business now... Thanks for your support.
