MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / February 2008Datasheet source document
I'm trying to find a way to use an Excel table as the source document for PowerPoint chart datasheets. I am often combining the work of several individuals into one cohensive document -- and it'd just be easier to work from their Excel tables. Any help? > I'm trying to find a way to use an Excel table as the source document for > PowerPoint chart datasheets.

The best solution might be to use Excel to create the charts rather than PPT, but if that's not practical, you can copy the data from Excel then doubleclick the chart in PPT and use Edit, Paste Link to paste a link to the Excel data into the chart. From then on, changes to the original Excel data will be updated in the chart whenever the chart is activated. Using Excel charts instead would give you charts that update themselves whenever the PPT file is opened, no need to activate each one individually. ----------------------------------------- Steve Rindsberg, PPT MVP PPT FAQ: www.pptfaq.com PPTools: www.pptools.com ================================================ |
