Is there any easy way how to use graphs created in MS Access 2000 in
Powerpoint?Especially when I need to use about 20 of them.

Is there any development in Office 2003?

re: How to get Graphs from MS Access and use them in MS Powerpoint


Instead of creating the graphs in Access, perhaps you should use vba
either (a) to open Powerpoint from within Access and create the graph
by pushing data into a Powerpoint template of your own design or (b)
start Powerpoint and open the Access database in code and pull the
data into a graph. Either way might be quite tricky, as you'd need to
know how to use vba to create a graph... which may not meet your
criterion for an "easy way". But it would automate your process for
20 graphs. I don't know if you can export an Access graph; and even
if you could, presumably, you'd still want to automate the process of
creating your Powerpoint presentation.
