Re: Update "buildin" excel in a powerpoint with macro

Hi,

There is at least 4 possible ways you could have created linked charts.
Please let us know which method you followed:

* Link to data that's contained in an excel workboook already saved as a
file somewhere
* Insert > Object > Microsoft Excel Workbook
* Insert > Object > Microsoft Excel Chart
* Insert > Object > Microsoft Graph Chart

Each of the above methods will behave differently, but all of them can
produce charts that are linked to a data table and can be refreshed.

Thanks.
