hi anyone know how to link a ppt graph to data in Excel? I'd rather not
copy/pastelink to an Excel graph, since I want to handle the graphics in ppt.
Any suggestions? Thanks much.

I wouldn't necessarily recommend it.

Graphs don't update automatically

But, for the record, you insert a chart into PPT, double-click to activate
it, then use Edit | Import File.
