Hi Abhi,
Rather than paste special, you can try Insert->object command and insert excel workbook as Object to your Presentation. After inserting, resize object. I hope this will solve your problem.

The problem which I always face is formatting. Once I paste the information into Powerpoint (using the "Paste-special" method") Powerpoint automatically rezises the object into a smaller size and distorts the font. Also when the information is updated in Excel and I say update links in Powerpoint, the object is resized and the fonts are also distorted. Can someone please let me know how to prevent this from happening? I found from one of the discussion groups that you can prevent auto- resizing by un-checking the "Automatic Layout for inserted objects" in the auto correct options. I am amazed that this option is not available to me in Powerpoint 2007. I only have "Automatic bullets" "Autofit Title text" and "Autofit Body Text". Any solutions? -- Regards, Abhi --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Some important links for excel users: 1.
