Copy from Excel to Powerpoint to create a report

[Paul_Hossler]

Thank! This worked now. Well, it did lose the formatting but I guess I would have to keep them in individual text boxes. I'll try doing that next.

Had a noobish question - I noticed that each textbox in Powerpoint has a unique number. Which is cool, since without the excel grid I wasn't sure how one would address individual boxes / shapes etc. By playing around with the code, I figured that the date text box is "TextBox 5". Is there a way I can see the 'names' of each box (without trial and error)?

Will play around with this and report.

Thanks,
Roy

Suggest you use the Selection Pane to give the objects a meaningful name, instead of the generic 'Textbox 2873'

Selecting an object in the selection pane will select it on the slide
