Microsoft Office PowerPoint 4.4 Excel Charts 38 Putting Content in the Presentation Many people need to include some figures. Instead of showing long data series it is a good idea to illustrate them using charts. You are probably familiar with bar charts and pie charts, and with PowerPoint you can make them look really nice. In PowerPoint 2007, the chart function is far better than in previous versions. Now it is actually the Excel spreadsheet program that controls everything, and it is a clear improvement over the old "MSGraph". You can also put an Excel chart in your presentation, which is stored in an Excel file somewhere else. This means that when the spreadsheet is updated it will also be reflected in your presentation. 4.4.1 Creating a New Excel Chart First we must create an Excel chart inside PowerPoint. Such a graph is saved in the presentation and has no links to other files. 1. Insert a new slide. Select the type Title and Content Object. 2. As title of the slide, you can write “Slides with Excel Chart 1”. 3. In the Content, click on the Insert Chart icon ( ) You can now choose between all the different chart types in Excel. 4. We will keep it simple for this exercise. In the left side, select the Column category 5. In the right side of the window, select the chart type top left. Which is a traditional bar chart. Figure 31: The window "Insert chart", where you select chart type. 6. Click OK and a nice chart will be inserted in your document. Download free ebooks at BookBooN.com
Microsoft Office PowerPoint 39 Putting Content in the Presentation Other things are happening as well. The screen is divided in two; the PowerPoint with the chart is in the left half, and in the right half there is a spreadsheet that contains the data that is displayed in the chart. The spreadsheet contains some sample data to help you to insert your own data in the right places.You can see that the chart data is surrounded by a thin blue frame. It shows exactly what data is included in the chart. If you write something in more rows or columns, the frame will adjust by itself. You can also manually resize the frame by clicking on it in the lower right corner, holding the mouse button and dragging it to the size you want. In this way you can get as many series and categories as you want. Figure 32: The screen is divided in a ”presentation part” and a ”spreadsheet part”. Here is an example where I have adapted the chart solely by entering data into the spreadsheet. The chart axes and series names change automatically if you change them in the spreadsheet.
