formatting of charts changes when copying from excel 2000 to 200.

[philall86]

When I copy a chart from Excel 2000 and paste it into Excel 2003, some of the
formatting is lost. In particular, scale and axis formatting. Is this a
programming issue or can it be corrected easily.

Thanks

Hi,

First one would answer why would you copy charts from 2000 to 2003, why not
make them in 2003?

Second and more important - how are you copying them - there are maybe 20
possible methods of copying a chart from one program to another. Please tell
us exactly which steps you use to do the copying. Also, exactly what
formatting are you loosing, what do you get instead?

When I do copy, paste (vanilla copying) I get an imbedded object in 2003 but
I don't loose the formatting.
