How would I be able to create a graph into powerpoint from a table in word

RE: Powerpoint 2007

Hello Diwam

Thank you for your question and welcome to the forum.

You can create a graph in PowerPoint using data from a Word table.

To do this:

1. Select the table (or part of the table) in Word; and copy.
2. In PowerPoint, change the slide layout to one that can accommodate a graph (e.g. Title and Content).
3. Click on the Chart icon.
4. Select the type of chart/graph you'd like to create; click OK.
5. When the datasheet for the chart data appears, select cell A1 and Paste.
6. Resize the data area in the data sheet if necessary, using the small shape at the bottom right hand corner of the data, so all your table data falls inside the blue lines.

I hope this helps.

Kind regards
Amanda

PowerPoint tip:

Use Format Painter to copy formatting to multiple pieces of text

The format painter tool provides a quick and easy way to copy formatting from one piece of text to another in PowerPoint.

The only problem is that if you click the Format Painter once to turn it on, you can only click and drag over a single piece of text; then the Format Painter turns itself off automatically.

If you want to copy formatting to more than one piece of text, double-click the Format Painter - this way you will be able to copy formatting to multiple pieces of text.

When you have finished using Format Painter, press the Esc key or click on the Format Painter button once to turn it off.
