RE: Charts

Hi Lindsay, thanks for your query. Format out the background of the chart as we did in class, setting the border and Area to none, so that the deselected chart has no background. Copy it, then go into Powerpoint or Word and paste. In 2003, it should paste in the graphic without the background (it's pasting it in as an actual Excel object, i.e. without the background). If that doesn't work trying pasting in as either a Windows metafile or Enhance metafile.

Hope this helps,

Anthony

Excel tip:

Quick Absolute Cell References

When entering cell references in a formula you probably click the cell, or you may type in the cell reference. If you require any of the 4 variations, press the F4 key now before you press Enter to toggle around the relative and absolute entries ($signs).

Note that the F4 key outside of editing a formula is the Repeat key to repeat a previous action.
