Is possible to Protect tables

RE: Protection

Hi Dan,

Thank you for your question.

As far as I am concerned you cannot protect tables in PowerPoint. I presume you are are trying to stop people from editing the values in the table.

There are two possible workarounds:

1. try copying the word table and Paste Special as a picture into the slide.

2. Create the table in a PowerPoint slide and copy and paste special it as a picture into the slide in the appropriate presentation.

I hope these suggestions help.

Regards

Simon

PowerPoint tip:

Checking for spelling errors in embedded or linked objects

The spellcheck in PowerPoint will only pick up errors in text typed directly onto PowerPoint slides - it will not pick up errors in any embedded or linked objects that have been brought into the presentation from another application.

To ensure the entire content of your presentation is error-free, use spellcheck in the application you are importing information from before embedding or linking objects into PowerPoint.
