Copying Autoshapes from Excel to Word: losing formatting
I typically use Excel to do flowcharts and other diagrams, but I often
want to publish them in Word documents. The problem is, if I set the formatting of the autoshapes in Excel (text alignment, font size, etc), then it's all lost when I paste it into Word. Anyone know how I can do this without losing the formatting? P.S. I know that I can create drawings directy in Word, but it's much easier to use Excel. |

Hi Nick-
After you select & copy the flowchart, you can use the EditPaste Special command to paste it as a picture. You won't be able to edit it (easily) in Word, but it will retain the formatting. Good Luck |:) "Nick Hebb" wrote: I typically use Excel to do flowcharts and other diagrams, but I often want to publish them in Word documents.
