PP 2000 - Linking from previous version of pp

[Annette]

We recently upgraded PP from 97 to 2000. My presentation had all the links
from an Excel workbook throughout the 40 some slides and was working just
fine. Now a couple of the slides will not update links. I have to manually
copy from the spreadsheet and paste to the PP slide.

I used to be able to just link special in 97, but that feature appears to
have changed and that each spreadsheet needs to have it's own workbook
according to the help I read for 2000. Did I miss something big here?

Why can I no longer link just areas of a spreadsheet to a slide?

Thanks!

Annette

Annette,

I don't have those versions anymore so can't comment on comparisons. But
there may be something here that will help:
