Dear all,

I have some tables in Excel and I am making a Powerpoint
presentation with them.
Is there any way to...?:
1. Automatically update the Powerpoint presentation with
any change in the excel table.
2. Mantain the appearence of the table in Powerpoint if
there are changes, for example, in the size of the Excel
table?

Thanks in advance!

There are limits to the size of table you can link this way; if its too big,
PowerPoint will start to cut bits off. You can get around this by reformatting
the original table to a smaller font size and shrinking column widths/heights
for example.
