I am preparing a PowerPoint presentation and am trying to insert an existing
Excel file as a slide. The Excel file includes two graphs. I tried copy and
paste, but the data is a mess when pasted over to Power Point.
 
Try this. Copy the Excel file then go to the PPT file and use EDIT > PASTE
SPECIAL Select the Microsoft Office Excel Worksheet Object
 
Rich - Thank you! I've been struggling with this for hours. Your suggestion
worked perfectly. Thanks again.
 
This was so helpful. I too was struggling for hours trying all the different
help tools but none of them explained it how you did.
It worked!
Thanks
 
I am trying to insert part of an excel worksheet in PPT. When I past special
the entire worksheet is copied over. I want to only paste what is needed from
the sheet.
Any suggestions? Also, once the specific data is pasted and I double-click
to edit, the entire worksheet appears again. Got any ideas??
 
I have pasted as you suggested below. But when on running the slide show when
clicked the excel it is not opening . Pls advise how to proceed further.
 
Always a good idea to tell us which version of PowerPoint your using. Have a
look here and see if this helps.
