From: Stephen on 21 May 2010 11:10 I have linked an excel chart into a word document by pasting special as a link. It looks fine when I paste it. I close the application and when I open it again the chart is cut off on the left, and sometimes at the top. It's as if the chart itself is off the edge of the frame it is sitting in. The chart in excel is perfectly OK. I can edit the excel chart, and edits are updated in the word document when links are updated, but it doesn't change the position of teh chart, so it's still cutting off part of the chart. The chart is on it's own sheet rather than being in another sheet. I can drag the chart area in excel in order to make it fit in the word document. but even after doing this it moves again in word, and if I keep going I wont have anywhere left to drag it to. What am i doing wrong and how can I solve this? Thanks

Try paste linking your chart into a single-cell Word table. -- S.V.C. "Stephen" wrote: > I have linked an excel chart into a word document by pasting special as a > link.
