Thank you. I will try this once I have a clean Ofice 2007 installation back
up and ready to go. (My Vista/Office 2007 computer crashed yesterday.) I'm pretty sure it will be fine here, though -- I've not noticed anything like what you're describing when working with charts in 2007. Have you run the Office Diagnostics? You might also want to change your hardware acceleration.

Bug on Graphs
You're welcome to send them, but I don't have a clean Office 2007
installation right now to look at them on, so it may be a few days. My email address is echos at indy dot net. Please include a description of what's happening so I know what it is I'm looking at. FWIW, I don't think you and Alexander are experiencing the same problem. (He hasn't mentioned any errors on close.) -- Echo [MS PPT MVP] http://www.echosvoice.com What's new in PPT 2007? http://www.echosvoice.com/2007.htm Fixing PowerPoint Annoyances http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/powerpointannoy/ "janokary" wrote in message news So I'll try to turn off "auto save" in excel and see what will happen. I don't use copy paste from excel. I create graphs in PowerPoint using powerpoint's templates and I insert values there. Is there a way to send you 2 presentations to see for your self? |

... I Have sp1 but does't seems to work any other ideas? Honestly, I'm out of ideas. I think you may want to call Microsoft product support for your "officelifeboathang" issue and saving and getting blank graphs. Oh, you know what? I do have one last idea. It will seem weird, but make sure you have a Windows-certified printer driver installed and set as the default printer. Here are instrux -- you might want to just use the same printer driver as in that tutorial as a test.

Well, I have good news and bad news. The bad news is, I can't reproduce
this. The bad new is, I can't reproduce this. :-) That means it's probably not a problem with PowerPoint specifically, but probably something unique to your system.
