Greetings, I have a PP slide with Excel charts in them. When I was using 2003 version of PP I could open PP and click update links and all was well. The charts udpated... Now with 2007 when I click update links my chart in PP blows up to like 2000% in size. I have recreated the charts using 2007 in Excel and Powerpoint....recreating the slides with no luck. Does anyone know a fix for this?
Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

A little more info would be helpful.

Was it created as a linked chart? or linked excel object?

Meaning copy chart, paste as link. Or, create xl chart object and link it that way.

Why does it not automatically ask to update?

Native 2007 PPT or imported from 2003 variety?

May not be able to help even after all that, but have to give it a try.

Canadian eh! Check out the new social forum Tek-Tips in Canada.
