Hi!

I have a problem. If I copy an excel 2D pie chart into powerpoint as an wmf
file and then ungroup the picture. All colors disappear?

Any one heard of this before? Solution?

Regards
Elisabeth

The color printer thing should go in annoyances, if it hasn't already.
(Would email this to you, but I can't find the annoyances email address :) )

Does setting your default printer driver to a color one fix this?

It's on the list for pasting in excel datasheet stuff where the color
doesn't show up. But I don't know if that is indeed the fix for this one.
