I use the link function in Powerpoint to load data from Excel sheets and this
works fine.  However, the first time I refresh after the initial 'paste
special - link' has been added, it shows the row and column lines from the
excel sheet that were not there previously.   I don't want them to show but
cannot find a way to prevent it.    Any ideas?

Lindsay-- this happens to be occassionally with my "dashboard" (a constantly
updated spreadsheet that has its data linked into a powerpoint).  The only
way I'm able to fix this is by re-doing the link and making sure nothing is
next to the cells I'm linking (ie, keeping a graph or chart well clear of the
cells in question).

Not sure if that helps but it works for me...most of the time!
