Default Prevent Chart Conversion to Grayscale When Copying


Sometimes when I copy a colored chart from Excel, it is automatically
converted to a GRAYSCALE image so that when I paste, it pastes as
grayscale. How do I prevent this? It happens INCONSISTENTLY; I copy
and paste charts all the time- this problem happens a few times a month
only. E.g., I can copy and paste one chart resulting in a colored
image, then repeat immediately (3 seconds later) with another chart and
the result is a gray image.
I have tried restarting my computer and it does not help.
The problem has "gone away" each time... not sure how or why.
I am confident the result has nothing to do with pasting (I paste as
Enhanced Metafile into PowerPoint) because the Clipboard image itself
is already gray after copying, before I paste.
The only people I have ever known to have this problem are my co-worker
and I. I found nothing on line about this problem after extensive
searching.
Has anyone experienced this?
How can I fix it / work around it?
