Hi,

One way (Office 2004 and earlier)

With Excel open and the graph¹s data range in front of you, and with
PowerPoint open to a blank slide, in PowerPoint use Insert > Chart. A
default graph will open. Switch to Excel. Select the data range that is
being used for the graph in Excel. From Excel¹s menu choose Edit > Copy.
Switch to the open Microsoft Graph application. From Graph¹s menu choose
Edit > Paste Link. Format the graph as desired. Then Graph > Close and
Return to Presentation.

Another way (Office 2004 and earlier) - Similar to the above

With Excel open and the graph¹s data range in front of you, and with
PowerPoint open to a blank slide, in PowerPoint use Insert > Object >
Microsoft Excel WorkSheet. A blank Excel worksheet will appear and you will
be in Excel. Use the Excel Window menu to switch to the data you want
linked. Select the data range that is being used for the graph in Excel.
From Excel¹s menu choose Edit > Copy. From Excel¹s Window menu switch to the
worksheet from the Presentation. Use Edit > Paste Special and click the
Paste Link button From Graph¹s menu choose Edit > Paste Link. Create a
graph as desired and its location should be a graph sheet. Then Excel >
Close and Return to Presentation.

In both of the above cases the data and the resultant graph will be linked
to the original Excel worksheet¹s data.

If you are using Office 2008 let me know and I will try it there. It appears
some variation on the second method might work. My first attempt resulted
in lots of errors but it appears that it is due to a conflict between Office
2004 and Office 2008 residing on the same machine.

Are you using 2008? There's a "clear recent" command at the bottom of
the Open Recent menu.

Anyway to get my original user name back?

Hi TCC,

I, too, am deeply disappointed that MacBU decided to release Office 2008
without VBA.

There is a free guide to help us ³transition² to AppleScript:
http://www.mactech.com/vba-transition-guide/

For the kinds of macros I write, AppleScript can¹t do the job. No Auto_Open,
Auto_Close, UserForms or save as add-in.

You can request that Microsoft restore VBA by offering your consumer case to
have VBA here:

APA STYLE

Posted: 04 Feb 2008 01:58 PM PST

Yes, Daiya is right on the money. You can learn more about this citation
style at http://www.apa.org, amongst many other sites online.

If the OP can be more specific about how we do not honor APA rules, I can
probably be of more assistance.

Thanks,


Curt

PS. Those are Word 2008 instructions. If using a different version, say
so--the details are different.

You have to remove the trial version before using the retail version.
Registration is not required.

Currently, the Mactopia site is broken for this function. "Registration" has
nothing to do with the operation of the software - unlike the Activation
required for MS Windows software. It's little more than a marketing tool.

Removing the test drive AFTER installing the retail version has been a
nightmare for many users.

Have you asked for help with this in alt.comp.lang.applescript? Surely
you'll get (possibly better) help there.

Duplex printing in Word 2004 and Leopard

Posted: 03 Feb 2008 02:10 PM PST

Thank you John McGhie for your prompt reply.
The problem hasn't been solved.
When I go to File&gt;Print, there is no unlabelled drop-down box.
On the top I see Printer (HP ....), Presets (standard), Copies &amp; pages. I can then set the number of copies I want, can opt to collate, &amp;
then choose which pages I want to print. (My old HP allowed me to check off even or odd pages &amp; choose print quality; these options aren't given either). On the bottom, I can choose PDF, Preview, Cancel or Print. I don't see any unlabelled box.
Am I doing something wrong or am I missing something?
Thank you.
