Is it possible to control the attributes (color or size) of PPT elements
(lines or shapes) with the values in an Excel spreadsheet?  In otherwords, if
Excel value = X, then PPT Line = Yellow... if Excel value = Y, then PPT Line
= Blue.

I am using version 2003 w/ XP.

PowerPoint won't do any of it automatically. However a programmer can
automate Excel and PowerPoint such that it reads the value from Excel and
sets the line color in PowerPoint.
