any way to change all graphs at once?

[Marcus Holmes]

So I have a powerpoint presentation with tons of graphs (all created in
powerpoint). Now, I need to change all of them in terms of things like bar
color, contrast, etc.

Is there a way to do this all at once or am I going to be doing this one by
one?


Thanks!

MSGraph, the little app that made the charts, will assign some of the bar
colors based on the current PowerPoint color scheme. See if changing the
scheme gets you there.

Otherwise, it's going to be slow manual slogging (or VBA coding if you can do
that).

It might help ... a lot, in fact ... if you set up one chart exactly as you
want it then save it as a new custom chart type. You might then be able to
bring up the next chart and change its type to your new custom type and voila.
