Can I export a chart from a report in access

[JoeF]

I was attempting to create a power point presentation the other day and I wanted to include some charts I had created in access reports. Is there any way to export these charts? I tried exporting to Excell and Word, but only the numerical data from the reports shows up; the charts were excluded.

NO. But you can set up an automation process to put the data into the poerpoint table used by the chart.

There is never time to do it right but there is always time to do it over

This is fairly old thread but I find it quite interesting to be able to drop the data in PowerPoint. How did you achieve?

This is a bit of a cheat but it works with Outlook, so I think it may work with power point, and you have to to do it, I haven't worked out a way to automate it.
Recreate the graphs on a form, copy and paste in design views will do most of this.
Open the graph form.
Select the the graph all nicely populated etc.
right click, copy, open powerpoint, (or an email as I did it.) and paste.
In the email an image of the graph is copied.
Dirty I know but it works.
