You say "database" to create many charts ....maybe you are not using Excel?

If you just want a snapshot picture of the chart, and it was created in
Excel, then my ChartPicMaker might do the trick.

If you want the chart to reflect changes then
you will have to insert a chart object from Word.

If the chart was not made in excel then
in Word ...
maybe inset object select the chart file

The suggestions I make are only suggestion.

I am attempting to copy and paste a chart I created. My screen is in full
color but when I copy and paste it into a word document it is black and white
on the screen. I do not understand why this is happening. I have used this
database to create many charts and have never had this problem. Any
suggestions?
