    Replace chart in powerpoint from excel

    This is what i have so far.
    I'm now only having isses trying to get the charts to copy over to ppt.
    let me know if i need to post under a new thread.


    I like to use text in my templates that is %%string%% so that i know where to find and replace.
    I have a shapes that has %%Chart1%%, %%chart2%%, etc. as the text in it. I'm trying to get it so that on sheet 2 of my excel book, where i have my charts in order, it will loop through the charts like it does with the text in sheet 1, and find the %%chart#%% in the powerpoint and paste my chart in there.
    just fyi, sheet 1 has a word in column A and the replacement in column b - it loops through and edits the template accordingly.

    Thanks for y'alls help.

    Hi thebkap,

    I'm wondering why you need code to get your chart from Excel to PPT? If you are using one of the newer versions of Excel.... Read here:

    I'd like to automate it so that i can fill in a large template with the charts i have in excel. The macro already finds and replaces text like %%employer%% with the employer name, so i'd like the macro to loop through the chart sheet and paste the charts where I need them.
