I found this snippet of code on the web (thanks JP):

Sub CopyChartsIntoPowerPoint()
''' COPY SELECTED EXCEL CHARTS INTO POWERPOINT
' Set a VBE reference to Microsoft PowerPoint Object Library

Dim pptApp As PowerPoint.Application
Dim iShapeIx As Integer, iShapeCt As Integer
Dim myShape As Shape, myChart As ChartObject
Dim bCopied As Boolean

Set pptApp = GetObject(, "PowerPoint.Application")

If ActiveChart Is Nothing Then
''' SELECTION IS NOT A SINGLE CHART
On Error Resume Next
iShapeCt = Selection.ShapeRange.Count
If Err Then
MsgBox "Select charts and try again", vbCritical, "Nothing Selected"
Exit Sub
End If
On Error GoTo 0
For Each myShape In Selection.ShapeRange
''' IS SHAPE A CHART?
On Error Resume Next
Set myChart = ActiveSheet.ChartObjects(myShape.Name)
If Not Err Then
bCopied = CopyChartToPowerPoint(pptApp, myChart)
End If
On Error GoTo 0
Next
Else
''' CHART ELEMENT OR SINGLE CHART IS SELECTED
Set myChart = ActiveChart.Parent
bCopied = CopyChartToPowerPoint(pptApp, myChart)
End If

Dim myPptShape As PowerPoint.Shape
Dim myScale As Single
Dim iShapesCt As Integer

''' BAIL OUT IF NO PICTURES ON SLIDE
On Error Resume Next
iShapesCt = pptApp.ActiveWindow.Selection.SlideRange.Shapes.Co unt
If Err Then
MsgBox "There are no shapes on the active slide", vbCritical, "No Shapes"
Exit Sub
End If
On Error GoTo 0

''' ASK USER FOR SCALING FACTOR
myScale = InputBox(Prompt:="Enter a scaling factor for the shapes
(percent)", _
Title:="Enter Scaling Percentage") / 100

''' LOOP THROUGH SHAPES AND RESCALE "PICTURES"
For Each myPptShape In pptApp.ActiveWindow.Selection.SlideRange.Shapes
If myPptShape.Name Like "Picture*" Then
With myPptShape
.ScaleWidth myScale, msoTrue, msoScaleFromBottom
.ScaleHeight myScale, msoTrue, msoScaleFromBottom
End With
End If
Next

Set myChart = Nothing
Set myShape = Nothing
Set myPptShape = Nothing
Set pptApp = Nothing
End Sub

Function CopyChartToPowerPoint(oPPtApp As PowerPoint.Application, _
oChart As ChartObject)
CopyChartToPowerPoint = False

oChart.Chart.CopyPicture Appearance:=xlScreen, Format:=xlPicture,
Size:=xlScreen
oPPtApp.ActiveWindow.View.Paste

CopyChartToPowerPoint = True
End Function

That part works fine, now Im trying to define the destination of each chart
on the PPT slide. I though it may be something like this:
PowerPointConn.ActivePresentation.Slides(SlideNumb er).Shapes(1).Top = "85"
PowerPointConn.ActivePresentation.Slides(SlideNumb er).Shapes(1).Left = "85"


However, it doesn't work.

Also, my charts are named Chart1, Chart2, and Chart3 now, but in the future
the charts may be deleted and recreated, so Im wondering if there is a way
to define variables such as:

Dim MyChartObj

Then, define the destinations for these charts/objects.

Is this possible or just wishful thinking?
