I have a table in word with some data and we need to create a
powerpoint slide with the data. We have been 'copy & paste' the table
from Word to Powerpoint, but ideally I want the same feature as
between Excel and Powerpoint where it is copied as a link so that if I
make changes to the Excel it filter through to the Powerpoint without
having to do another 'copy & paste'. How do I do the same from Word to
Powerpoint - I tried copying from Word and pasting special ...as a
link but if I change Word it does not change Powerpoint.
Thanks

If I'm not mistaken, if you use Edit/Paste Special/Paste Link, you'll need
to go to Edit/Links/Update Links when you are ready to update the changes to
the Word document.

I'm not sure what you mean by Excel and PPT and "copied as a link," though.
If you mean Edit/Paste Special/Paste Link, I believe you have to use
Edit/Links/Update Links to update the Excel data in PPT as well.

You could also use Insert/Object/From File and click the Link option there.
