Inserting an excel sheet into a PowerPoint presentation

Hi,

I'm inserting an object - a linked excel sheet to my presentation. I can do this no problem, however I'm not able to specify the content how I want it. I'm getting empty rows and columns below and on the left of table. How do I get rid of them?

Also how do I get rid of the grey borders in my table in my presentation? I would like only those borders that I've drawn to show on the PP.

Thank you!

Hi Maria,
Thank you for the post, in answer to you question; this may be down to the Excel worksheet and not so much to PowerPoint. In the first part of your question; ensure that there is no data outside the table you wish to link, eg there may be a space in one cell which will cause those cells to be included in your link. Also your worksheet should start in A1.
In the second part of your question, again in Excel you need to switch off the gridlines before you link the worksheet, to do this go to menu comand Tools>Options and in the View tab you will see the option to switch off the grid lines, have a go and good luck, best regards Pete
