I have Powerpoint slides that use information residing in various Excel
spreadsheets on the same shared drive. How can I link the data from the
speadsheets to the slides so I don't have to manually enter the data each
time? Thanks in advance for your help.
 
I'm not importing all the data on the spreadsheets, just date from certain
cells. I need to be able to create several powerpoint slides that contain the
same data as resides in these particular cells in Excel.
 
This certainly looks like it would work. Unfortunately, I'd have to purchase
the software and that's not an option. What if I created another spreadsheet
in Excel and linked all the data to it, then imported that spreadsheet into
PowerPoint? I think I'll try that, but thanks anyway for your efforts.
 
Type the info you want into a cell in Excel.
Choose the font, font attributes, color, etc. you want.
Select it and choose Edit, Copy
Switch to PPT
Edit, Paste Special, checkmark next to Link

Size and position to taste.
