How do I paste table contents from excel into a powerpoint table..

I'm trying to paste contents of an Excel Spreadsheet into a formatted table
within Powerpoint.

The aim is to paste the Excel data into the Powerpoint table and retain the
current text styles and colour formats etc. that exist in each cell of the
Powerpoint table. It doesn't seem that there is a paste command within
powerpoint that allows you to do this? The only options available under paste
special are "HTML format", "Formatted Text (RTF)" and "Unformatted Text" and
none of these options work, and the text is pasted unformatted regardless of
whcih option I chose.

I'm hoping there is a "text only" paste command available?

Hi Azza,

Copy the data from excel and paste it on a slide. Formatting can be done
thereupon but the data you are taking from excel sheet should not be long
enough which cannot be copied on a single slide.
