I don't know if this is possible, but is there a way to have a macro in Excel copy and paste charts into a Powerpoint file? I've got a program that creates all the material needed for a Powerpoint slide deck and I want to automate the copy/paste work.

How to temporarily disable PowerPoint charts which are linked to Excel. The problem is, whenever I copy a slide and try to paste it elsewhere, Office attempts to update all of the links in the entire PowerPoint. Since the slide deck has so many links, this takes an awful lot of time to do. I don't want to break the links completely as I would lose any ability to keep them dynamic. I've checked all of the advanced options within PowerPoint, but cannot find any way to temporarily disable links from updating.

Essentially copying everything in the range A40:U74 inc charts and paste them into a slide as a picture on the click of a macro button.
I have to do alot of reports like this for my project and it takes up alot of time copying and pasting etc.
I have seen different codes for this but they are either for charts only or text... the one i did see for both, didnt work at all.
I am trying to write a macro that goes in an excel file that creates a powerpoint presentation, and puts four (4) charts in each slide.. I currently have a code that is pasting all of the charts in the same slide and I can't figure out why it isn't working (side note: I haven't attempted to resize or relocate the pictures on the powerpoint slides yet)..
Code:
'Add a reference to the Microsoft PowerPoint Library by:
'1. Go to Tools in the VBA menu
'2. Click on Reference
'3. Scroll down to Microsoft PowerPoint X.0 Object Library, check the box, and press Okay
'keep button in same location

With btn
btLeft = .Left
btTop = .Top

Right now the code takes charts & tables from all sheets in a workbook. I would like to limit this to only charts on one tab - CHARTS.
I am also looking to tweak this to open an existing presentation, as well as apply a template instead of simply pasting to blank slides.

I have created a powerpoint that has linked charts from excel. Stupidly, I have saved both of these files (powerpoint and excel) on my desktop.
I need to save them on another drive (so they can be accessed by others) but i am worried that if i move the original excel file, it will break the links for the charts in the powerpoint file....
I have over 150 charts so I don't fancy going through and re-pasting each chart.
I've been using a VBA code to look through my spreadsheet and find any graphs in any tab and move it to powerpoint. I have about 70 tabs with 7 graphs each.
I have is that the order of the graphs in the slidepack isn't in the same as found on each excel tab.I also tried renaming them (chart1-chart7) but problem still remains.
I have a Template which is used to import log data, calculate and displaying the results in several charts. Then all sheets are copied to a new workbook, a Save As dialog apears for the new workbook and the template will close. This is all done with VBA and it works fine.
Problem:
The Worksheets with the Charts on it refer to the data-source at the template file.
Strange because the copied worksheets have the same names as the originals.
(when Opens: This Workbook contains Links to other Workbooks...)
Question:
How can I establish that the Charts will point to their own data sources in the same Workbook rather then linking to the Template file on a Server.
I have this VBA code which I use for transferring data from my data sheet to slides in PowerPoint - it works fine.
However in PowerPoint I'm currently forced to transfer data to "text-objects" which is a bit of a drag because I'm used to working in a table in Powerpoint when organizing data.
Therefore my question is how to edit my VBA code so I can transfer data to a table in PowerPoint instead of an object.
Here's the VBA code:
Code:
Sub TDPTest()
Dim shtStudent As Worksheet
Dim strMedarbejder As String
[Code].....
I am new to VBA and i need to write a VBA code that should transfer or export any selected thing (whether it may be table, cell or chart ) in Excel Sheet to Powerpoint presentation. My excel Sheet consist of a table and a chart generated from this table.
View 9 Replies View RelatedSo far my VBA will copy my range of cells in Excel and paste them into Powerpoint but I'm totally stuck as to how to resize the image from there. I've tried a bunch of different methods and I get some pretty crazy results but can't seem to punch through to a solution. What I'd like it to do, at the end of the VBA is:
Set the lock aspect ratio to false
Set the Height to 5.5"
Set the Width to 9.83"
Set the horizontal position to .08 from Top Left
Set the Vertical position to .58 from Top Left
I cannot seem to get my save as portion to work at all. I commented it out at the bottom. This is all in Excel and PPT 2007.
Here is what I have so far:

Dim ppSlide As PowerPoint.Slide
On Error Resume Next
Set ppApp = GetObject(, "PowerPoint.Application")
On Error GoTo 0

Ultimately the behavior I'm looking for with this macro is to copy a filtered range of cells from Excel and paste it as a picture into Powerpoint (up til this point I'm golden) then resize the image on the slide, save the presentation, then exit PPT.
I have a workbook with a chart on a worksheet called Area Report
There are 10 areas in total A - J, to view a particular area cell I2 is validated to only accept entries A - J which represent the Areas, selecting a particular area updates the chart for that area

I have an excel based report consisting of several worksheets. Each worksheet contains VBA code which allows the user to generate custom reports with a series of Excel Charts being generated. I have two related problems with the output/display.
Whenever I save the file the code is triggered causing each sheet to update and scrambling charts. (To fix this I have to leave the report and then re-enter, which then works fine).
Is there anything I can do to stop this from happening? For example, to avoid the code being run on save or to refresh the active screen. A couple of things I should mention: I already have screenupdating turned off so the user is not seeing each action being calculated. At present to avoid the chart display glitches with complex tasks, I have added a line to my code at the end which moves off screen and then returns to the current screen. That ensures the chart no longer lingers on screen, however it does mean that for a split second a phantom graph appears in the middle of the screen before disapearing.
I need to create 63 charts from data which I have in two columns. I want to create multiple charts using one macro. For the first chart I want it to use cells K2:K80 as the x values, and M2:M80 as the y values. For the next chart I want it to use cells K81:K159 as the x values and M81:159 as the y values. For the next chart I want it to use cells K160:K238 as the x values and M160:M238 as the y values. I want to continue this, creating a chart for every 78 cells of data, all the way until the 63rd chart which uses K4900:K4978 as the x values and M4900:M4978 as the y values. I have created the following macro by " recording." This macro generates the first chart that I want:
Sub Macro5()
ActiveSheet.Shapes.AddChart.Select
ActiveChart.ChartType = xlXYScatterSmoothNoMarkers
ActiveChart.SeriesCollection.NewSeries
ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).XValues = "=Sheet1!$K$2:$K$80"
ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).Values = "=Sheet1!$M$2:$M$80"
ActiveChart.ChartType = xlXYScatterSmoothNoMarkers
ActiveWindow.SmallScroll Down:=-3
End Sub
How can I alter this macro to create all 63 charts?. It seems like there is an easy way to do this, but I don't use macros very much (at all).
Consider two instances of Excel - one with a workbook containing a chart and some VBA code, the other containing a blank workbook. When I paste a chart from the first instance of Excel to the other, all the VBA code from the original workbook is also pasted into a new third hidden workbook in the second instance of Excel! If that weren't weird enough ON WINDOWS XP (but not Windows 2000) if the VBA code included WorkbookOpen or AutoOpen this code is executed in the second instance of Excel, which of course fails if it references sheets that only existed in the workbook open in the first instance of Excel! This is the first time I've seen the same version of Excel do different things on different versions of Windows! Example attached - What's going on!? Auto Merged Post Until 24 Hrs Passes;...note: this does not happen when pasting charts between workbooks open in the SAME instance of Excel

I am trying to use a dynamic VBA code to import data into a xcel sheet from another sheet. I currently have it working but in the code I have the directory and the file name listed for the file to be imported. I would like to change this to a cell referance inside my sheet so that I can make changes to the name of the file or the directory location and the VBA code would use the cell reference as the source data.
Is it possible to write a macro that can import VBA code in a text file then execute it? I need this functionality as I have produced a corporate spreadsheet template that goes out to many people and I will need to be able to update it as requirements change once it has been distributed. So my idea was to build a macro in the template that has the code in it to import the "update code" from a text file that I would send to all the folks that have the template. If the template was centralized, that would save me from this issue but it is however going to be distributed widely.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have two macros one of which imports the data and the other processes the data. These macros were created at different times and need to be joined into a single macro that will combine their operations – with slight modification to the importing macro. Let me describe what each of the macros does:
PROCESS macro:
Cycles through the CONTROL CELL on the “1” tab using the VALUES TO TEST. For each value to test it copies the values form the output tabs and pastes them into the A+B tab. Then it removes the duplicate rows there.
Option Explicit
'======================================
Sub PROCESS() 'This subroutine is called when clicking on the first button
Dim i As Long, j As Long, k As Long 'Those are the variables that will browse through the whole sheets
Dim l As Integer 'this will be used to browse through the values to test
Dim TheSearch(1 To 2) As Object 'This is an array of objects that will be used for the search
Dim TheRange As Range 'This will be used to flag the range of duplicates in the output
'Searching for the Text string 'VALUES To TEST' in the sheet "1" in order to know where the array of values to be tested start
Set TheSearch(1) = Range(Cells(1, 1), Cells(ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count + 10, ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Columns.Count)).Find(What:="VALUES TO TEST", LookIn:=xlValues, Lookat:=xlWhole)

I'm attempting to import around 200 (and growing!) separate text files into Excel. I am using the formula below to import the text file and then using a separate macro to select the information I need, copy it into another spreadsheet, and then run the import macro again.
However, I have a problem in that my import macro gives me 'Run-time error '1004:
Application defined or user defined error''. At first this wasn't a problem as the information is pasted into the spreadsheet despite the error anyway. However, now that I am looping the macro it is obviously causing more problems as it prevents the loop. I would really appreciate it if anyone knows of a work-around or can spot an error in the coding to resolve this!
The code below shows is for the import macro only:
Sub ImportTextFile(FName As String, Sep As String)
Dim RowNdx As Long
Dim ColNdx As Integer
Dim TempVal As Variant
Dim WholeLine As String
Dim Pos As Integer
Dim NextPos As Integer
Dim SaveColNdx As Integer

So I have lets say 3 workbooks and on each first tab of that worbook there is a (pivot)graph. Now what I would want is VBA code which opens these excel workbooks, then copy the chart and paste it into a powerpoint presentation each chart on a new powerpoint slide. So it can be rather basic. A loop which goes thru excel sheets and always takes the chart on the first tab. I see a lot of different code but not what I really can use for powerpoint thru excel vba.
