Hello,

I have an application that adds charts into powerpoint
using the AddOLEObject function. When I attempt to assign
the recently added object to a variable of type
Excel.Chart from the shape.OLEFormat.Object property , it
takes quite a while. This assignment/cast seems to take
about 1 second to complete. Does anyone know why this is
so slow? Is there a different way to access the pointer
to the chart than using the OLEFormat.object property? Is
there a way to speed this up?

Thanks
Matt
