Copy Chart
Copy Chart
(OP)
I copy an embedded chart from Excel 2003 to Word by selecting the underlying cells then ctl c, paste special, Picture(enhanced metafile). Now for the 1st time in a year when I paste I get the cell gridlines. It's from this file only. The other files I copy from don't have the problem. I compared all the options and made sure they were the same. I get the gridlines whether I use ctl c or shift edit copy. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Roger

RE: Copy Chart
The reason I use the method is there are 2 charts in a specific arrangement perfectly set up to drop into the word doc. If I select them individually they don't look right and trying to make them consistent with the others is too much trouble.
Now I remember even more. I checked the box to print out something else on the sheet last week and I never did that before. I never had reason to futz with it so I feared I screwed it up.
I new it would be something simple and a simple Excel person gave me the answer.
I appreciate your help though.
Thanks,
Roger
