Excel Graphs pasted into Powerpoint - Please HELP!

I work for a Comapny that requires "Dashboards" to be sent out on a monthly
basis to all of our Clients. These dashboards hold specific data that is
stored within excel. You would think that cutting (CTRL + C) and pasting
(CTRL + V) would be simple. It is not. All graphs have to be the same height
and width. When I make them all the same size and width and save it in
excel, then paste the graph into powerpoint, The graphs resize. Thus, now
not to the "standard" of keeping all the same size.

How do I fix this? Is there a quick way of doing this? Is there another
Microsoft program that works better with excel and serves the same purpose of
powerpoint. I really need help. Thanks!
 
I appreciate your help with this. However, I lose quality with the clarity
when having to make it a picture. Because i can't just copy and paste it in
there.

Am I doing it wrong, or is just not working?
 
Copy the chart in Excel and in PPT, use Edit|Paste Special. Paste as an
image -- I generally prefer WMF or EMF for charts.

Don't paste into a placeholder, just paste (or paste special) directly on
the slide.

Or...

Put your charts on chart sheets in Excel, size to 100%, copy, and paste into
PPT. You can right-click and choose Format Object and, if necessary, resize
using the settings on the size tab. Hopefully it won't be necessary, though.
