Thanks. I'll give it a shot.

When you paste, it's probably pasting in wrapped. If you change the wrapping
to In Line With Text, it will be in the table cell, but at this point it
will still be too big, so you'll have to size it manually using the Format |
object dialog.

I have a table with a "locked" cell size. I can do a straight copy and
paste
of an Excel chart into this table cell as a picture and it will scale
itself
to fit nicely into the cell. I don't seem to be able to do a paste
special,
linked Excel object, into the cell. The chart appears to be full size,
not
scaled, and either floats over the table or behind it, when I want it
fully
enclosed IN the table cell. Is this possible to do?

We have a series of charts to show on a single page and table cells have
always been the way we've done it. We have always pasted as pictures, but
I'd like to be able to paste links.
