Are you saying that Powerpoint has a way of automatically saving each

And a bunch of other formats, yes. That doesn't help you unless Visio
had this option, too (you can check this out, I cannot on this system here).


I don't see these options in my version of Visio. In any case, I think
it would apply to an entire page or maybe the entire document.

I am trying to get it down to a little finer resolution -- an
individual graphic object in Visio.


Does that mean that your content originates in PPT and you transfer it
to Visio?


Assuming that PPT is Powerpoint, no. I create my graphics in Visio.

I don't understand. Are you saying that Paste Special is OLE or that I
need to learn and use OLE?


Past Special *plus* _as link_ may result in an OLE object, depending on
your further choice in the dialogue. If you chose for instanc "MS Visio
Object" or something like that, then that sure will be an OLE object.


OK, if you say so. I don't give a damn how it is linked. I just want
it to work. And I'd prefer not to have to get a CS degree to make it
happen.

Paste Special is working. It just embeds the entire graphic. I can't
for the life of me figure out why.
