Add your Chart to a PowerPoint Presentation

Question

How do I add a chart from Excel to a PowerPoint Presentation?

Answer

  1. Copy the chart in Excel. 
  2. Open PowerPoint. 
  3. On the slide you want the chart to be on, paste the chart.
  4.  In the chart's lower-right corner the Paste Options button appears. Click the button. You'll see that Chart (linked to Excel data) is selected. That ensures that any changes to the chart in Excel will automatically be made to the chart in PowerPoint.  Now you are ready to present your chart!
