Linking your Excel 2010 Charts to your Power Point presentation

Now that you know how to make amazing charts in Excel, you can also use them to spice up your Power Point presentations.  First, highlight and copy your chart that you created in your Excel worksheet.  You can copy it by using the shortcut CTRL+C or by clicking Copy in the Home tab under the Clipboard group.  Now open your Power Point Presentation and select the slide where you would like to insert your chart.  While still in Power Point, click on the Home tab and in the Clipboard group click the down arrow underneath the Paste button. Hover over the paste icons to see all of your paste options.  Two of the options will link any changes you make to your Excel chart to the Power Point presentation.  These options are “Keep Source Formatting & Link Data” or “Use Destination Theme & Link Data.”
