Pasting Graphs from Excel to PowerPoint

Everytime I copy a chart from Excel (ver 2000-9.0.7616
SP3) into PowerPoint (ver2000 66.2) I have to resize it as
well as paste special as a picture. This only happens
when the Excel chart is on its' own chart page, not when
it is embedded on a worksheet. Is there any way to have
the default paste mode as a picture and to have it paste
such that I do not have to resize them all when I copy
them from a chart page? Any help would be greatly
appreciated!

Thanks.
 
Hello Jackie,

PowerPoint does not have the specific capability that you are looking for.
Although some defaults can be customized (such as using the Options dialog)
other defaults (such as Paste format) are built-in and cannot be customized
and require manual or VBA workarounds.

If you (or anyone else reading this message) think that PowerPoint should
provide more control over various default behaviors, settings, etc.
(without have to resort to VBA or 3rd party add-ins), don't forget to send
your feedback to Microsoft at:

As with all product suggestions, it's important that you not just state
your wish but also why it is important to you that your product suggestion
be implemented by Microsoft. Microsoft receives thousands of product
suggestions every day and we read each one but, in any given product
development cycle, there are only sufficient resources to address the ones
that are most important to our customers so take the extra time to state
your case as clearly and completely as possible.

IMPORTANT: Each submission should be a single suggestion (not a list of
suggestions)
