Retaining Excel colors when pasting into Word or PowerPoint
 

I have the professional edition of Office 2003, and have developed a weird
problem. If I use any color other than black for a line item in Excel, it
pastes into both Word and PowerPoint as black. I can see the color in Excel
(red, white, etc.), but the properties are not retained when pasted as Paste
Special/Enhanced Metafile. Any suggestions??
