Is there a stability issue when working with graphs?

[GRV123]

Every time I copy a graph from Excel into PowerPoint 2007 then try to format
the graph, PowerPoint freezes up. For kicks I waited over an hour to no
avail. This problem also occurs when I choose to build the graph within
PowerPoint.

Does anyone know why this is happening and if there is a solution?

Thx
