Default Copy chart from Excel to Word

I would suggest copying the chart as a picture and then pasting that picture
into your Word document. You won't be able to make changes in the Word
document, but the formatting of the chart remains in tact.

Jon Peltier has a very detailed writeup on this subject on his site. Please
see the link below.

When I copy a chart/ graph from excel 2007 and paste it into a word doc it
changes the format (i.e., makes it too big or cuts off some of the graph or
legend). In Office 2000 I was able to double click on the chart once in word
and modify it but I can't do that now. Any suggestions for copying charts
without them being modified?
