Hi ?B?c2NydWZmeWdpcmw=?=,

I have tried embedding and linking excel charts into word but when i go to
print the color charts, they keep coming out in black and white. i have tried
embedding and linking all available formats. I am using Word 2002.

Have you tried:

Select the chart in Excel. Hold down SHIFT and click the Edit menu; this should
display the "Copy as Picture" menu item; select that. In Word: Edit/Paste
Special, activate "Link" and choose to paste as an Excel spreadsheet object.

If that doesn't help, try pasting it as a picture file format (with the link)

Sometimes, using "Copy as Picture" helps with what Word "sees"...
