I need help!!!1..What can I do to get around the jagged 3D column charts when I put them in Powerpoint. The columns look all jagged. I used to get around that in 2003 by right clicking on the pasted chart and clicking on "edit picture" saying yes to converting to a drawing object. In 2003 that would make the chart columns and gridlines crisp.

What can I do to fix this?
Please help..meeting tomorrow afternoon!

or are you importing them? Are the charts linked?

Yes...I'm copying and pasting them as paste special...window enhanced metafile....but I've tried importing them and the same result...jagged edges....looks like a third grader did it!

and having no luck. Sorry I could not be of help.

I was able to get around it by copying and pasting the 3D-chart as JPEG object in PowerPoint. So when I print the presentation, the chart is as clear as it is in EXCEL.

Thanks for helping!!
