Please could you tell me how to import an excel chart into a Power Point slide without losing all the formatting and sizing?

Many thanks,

Frances

Putting excel spreadsheet object into powerpoint slideshow

Hi Frances,

Copy the cells in Excel (drag and press Control+C).

Now go to Powerpoint and choose Edit -> Paste Special -> Mirosoft Excel Worksheet Object -> Okay.

This should paste in the object with all formatting and widths intact.

Now you can adjust the size of the object to control how much of the speadsheet you can view.

You can also double click the object to edit in Excel style. When you leave the object, Powerpoint will remember the view, so you may need to adjust your Excel scrollbars to ensure you show powerpoint only the cells you want.

Hope this helps,

Regards, Rich

PowerPoint tip:

Use Paint Brush to do Multiple Formating in Powerpoint

To copy a format from one piece of text or from a Text box in Powerpoint to multiple words or Text boxes

1. Select the word/text box with the format that you want to copy

2. Double-click on the paint brush icon on the Toolbar

When you move to the word/text box where you want to paste the format you will notice that a paint brush follows the cursor.

Paste the format to all the words and text boxes you need to format.

When finished go back to the paint brush on the Toolbar and single click on it to deactivate the function.
