Pulling Excel charts and graphs into Powerpoint is a nightmare

L

Is it just me, or does it totally suck trying to work with excel files
within ppt. Copy and paste in (even as a ppt table), they come in all
garbled and it's impossible to clean it up. Import them in and same
prob. Try to make changes to it once it's in ppt and once you click
out of the the excel graph it show sup all distorted.

Am I the only one who dreads working with excel files in ppt? For that
matter, I have the same issues pulling excel into MSWord.

I don't have any problems with my Excel stuff in PPT. Which versions of
Excel and PPT are you using?

I recommend that if you're going to resize anything like an Excel graph in
PPT, you right-click and choose Edit, and resize while the graph is opened.
Stretching the edges of these imported objects while on the PPT slide itself
is what usually causes problems with resize in my experience.
