Dear All,

I've recently upgraded my office 2000 software to office 2003. I'm in the
process of creating a powerpoint presentation that contains excel charts. I
would like to edit the embedded charts by double clicking on them, but I get
the following error message:error accessing file, network connection may have
been lost. Part of my excel document was done with excel 2000, but the latest
modifications I made to the document are in excel 2003.

Any advice?

All help will be very much appreciated
 
Hiya, thanks for your post. When I upgraded office, I updated Word, excel,
powerpoint etc, so the server application bit shouldn't be relevant.

Anyway, I did edit and copy worksheet into another book after which I was
able to edit my chart in powerpoint.

Regards,

Alan

This isn't the exact error message you report, but I'd still start here:

Can't edit Org Chart, Graph, Excel (error msg: "server application, source
file, or item can't be found")

Yup. It's best to stick with the discussion thread you've started already
(adding detail in followup messages if it seems relevant). It only confuses
things if you start a new thread. Thanks.
