Data input in powerpoint to select data in excel and report back to powerpoint

[daveybright]

Afternoon all,

I am working on a project, and ideally I would like to have a drop down box (or two) as part of a powerpoint slide. Upon selecting these options it will select/change the data in the following slides (graphs/numbers) based on an excel worksheet that is in the background (and never seen).

Hope I have described this well enough

Any help/pointes will be much appreciated

Dave
