Hi!
I'm using the code below to copy paste some charts from an Excel file to a PowerPoint file. The macro is running from the Excel file. It works fine. I would like now to be able to adjust a little bit the plot area of the chart after it has been pasted on the powerpoint and not the whole size of the shape. In the code below I'm already adjusting the shape but all my attempts to adjust only the plot area failed.

Sub CopyChartFromExcelToPpt()
'Turn screen updating off to speed up your macro code. You won't be able to see what the macro is doing, but it will run faster. Remember to set the ScreenUpdating property back to True when your macro ends.
Application.ScreenUpdating = False


Dim PPT_object As PowerPoint.Application
Dim OpenPptDialogBox As Object
Dim oCht As Chart
Dim MyShape As Object


Set PPT_object = CreateObject("PowerPoint.Application")
Set OpenPptDialogBox = PPT_object.FileDialog(msoFileDialogOpen)


'Open the target PPT using dialog box:
If OpenPptDialogBox.Show = -1 Then
PPT_object.Presentations.Open (OpenPptDialogBox.SelectedItems(1))
End If


'Copy the chart from excel macro file
 ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("Chart 3").Copy
'Paste the chart in  slide 4 of PPT
 Set MyShape = PPT_object.ActiveWindow.Presentation.Slides(4).Shapes.Paste


  'Change the position of shape, its height and width
 With MyShape
 .Left = 17.25
 .Top = 68.2307
 .Height = 198.5074
 .Width = 662.414897
 End With
 
 'Copy the chart from excel macro file
 ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("Chart 6").Copy
 'Paste the chart in  slide 4 of PPT
 Set MyShape = PPT_object.ActiveWindow.Presentation.Slides(4).Shapes.Paste
 
 'Change the position of shape and its height and width
 With MyShape
 .Left = 17.25
 .Top = 273.2619
 .Height = 198.5074
 .Width = 662.414897
 End With
 
'Save and close the file
 PPT_object.ActivePresentation.Save
 Application.ScreenUpdating = True
 PPT_object.Windows(1).Close
End Sub
Any help here, please?

Thanks in advance
