The Paste Special command gives more flexibility in that it allows charts to be pasted in a variety of formats. You can simply copy selected charts in Excel and then use the Paste or Paste Special commands in PowerPoint to insert the charts into a presentation.
We can paste a chart into a PowerPoint slide, embed a chart in a slide as an object, or link the slide to the Excel worksheet. Now we want to insert charts into another Microsoft Office application's document, specifically into one created in the PowerPoint application. We have already seen how charts can be saved and reused as a template.
