Hi everyone

I have a chart in excel that I want to link into a word document so that
when the chart is updated the word document will update without having to
repaste.

I copied the chart and in word went to Paste Special - Paste Link ok

The chart copies into the word doc and when I right click shows the update
link option.

When I click this though the chart does not update at all - what am I
missing please?

Thanks as always

NOte: is anyone else having a problem with not being notified of updates here?

Instead of using Paste Special, just use Paste. (the behaviour has changed)
