I have a wide spreadsheet that I need to paste into powerpoint from
excel. I have read about the limitations but thought this was fixed
in Office 2002. Below is my code any help would be greatly
appreciated.

'Launch Powerpoint
Set ppt = CreateObject("PowerPoint.Application")
'Make visible
ppt.Visible = msoTrue
'Insert New Presentation
Set pst = ppt.Presentations.Add
Set ppApp = GetObject(, "Powerpoint.Application.10")

' Reference active presentation
Set PPPres = ppApp.ActivePresentation

ppApp.ActiveWindow.ViewType = ppViewSlide

'-- some processing
Worksheets(ws.Name).Range(strRange).CopyPicture
Appearance:=xlScreen, _
Format:=xlBitmap

ppApp.ActivePresentation.Slides(iSlides).Shapes.Pa ste

ppApp.ActivePresentation.Slides(iSlides).Shapes.Ra nge.Top = 10
ppApp.ActivePresentation.Slides(iSlides).Shapes.Ra nge.Left = 10

ppApp.ActivePresentation.Slides(iSlides).Shapes.Ra nge.ScaleWidth
dScale, True
ppApp.ActivePresentation.Slides(iSlides).Shapes.Ra nge.ScaleHeight
dScale, True

ppApp.ActivePresentation.Slides(iSlides).Shapes.Ra nge.Align
msoAlignCenters, _
True

Hi Paul

Try function like this below . .

I am using a error handler coz sometimes it gives error on copypicture method and sometimes it works fine
so i am using resume to make it work

Sub PresentationExample(ByVal PPApp As PowerPoint.Application, ByVal PPPres As PowerPoint.Presentation, ByVal prmRange As Excel.Range
on error goto errhandle
Dim PPSlide As PowerPoint.Slid
Dim objRange As Excel.Rang
Set objRange = prmRang
Set PPSlide = PPPres.Slides.Add(PPPres.Slides.Count + 1, ppLayoutBlank
objRange.Selec
Application.CutCopyMode = False

objRange.CopyPicture Appearance:=xlScreen,
Format:=xlPictur

PPApp.ActiveWindow.View.GotoSlide PPSlide.SlideInde
PPSlide.Shapes.PasteSpecial.Selec
PPPres.Slides(PPSlide.SlideIndex).Shapes(1).LockAs pectRatio = msoTru
Call PPPres.Slides(PPSlide.SlideIndex).Shapes(1).ScaleH eight(1, msoFalse, msoScaleFromTopLeft
Call PPPres.Slides(PPSlide.SlideIndex).Shapes(1).ScaleW idth(1, msoFalse, msoScaleFromTopLeft
PPPres.Slides(PPSlide.SlideIndex).Shapes(1).Width = 647.4
PPPres.Slides(PPSlide.SlideIndex).Shapes(1).Top =
PPPres.Slides(PPSlide.SlideIndex).Shapes(1).Left =
PPPres.Slides(PPSlide.SlideIndex).Shapes.Range.Ali gn msoAlignCenters, Tru
PPPres.Slides(PPSlide.SlideIndex).Shapes.Range.Ali gn msoAlignMiddles, Tru
Application.CutCopyMode = Fals
Set objRange = Nothin
errhandler:
Application.CutCopyMode = Fals
resum
End Su

Hi Paul

Sometimes CopyPicture gives error and sometimes it works fine inspite of usin
Application.CutCopyMode = False which theratically clears the clipboard contents.so i have used resume
hope it helps
Take a look at the below func
Sub PasteRangeToPPT(ByVal PPApp As PowerPoint.Application, ByVal PPPres As PowerPoint.Presentation, ByVal prmRange As Excel.Range
On Error GoTo errhandle
Dim PPSlide As PowerPoint.Slid
Dim objRange As Excel.Rang
Set objRange = prmRang
Set PPSlide = PPPres.Slides.Add(PPPres.Slides.Count + 1, ppLayoutBlank
objRange.Selec
Application.CutCopyMode = Fals

objRange.CopyPicture Appearance:=xlScreen,
Format:=xlPictur


PPApp.ActiveWindow.View.GotoSlide PPSlide.SlideInde

PPSlide.Shapes.PasteSpecial.Selec
PPPres.Slides(PPSlide.SlideIndex).Shapes(1).LockAs pectRatio = msoTru
Call PPPres.Slides(PPSlide.SlideIndex).Shapes(1).ScaleH eight(1, msoFalse, msoScaleFromTopLeft
Call PPPres.Slides(PPSlide.SlideIndex).Shapes(1).ScaleW idth(1, msoFalse, msoScaleFromTopLeft
PPPres.Slides(PPSlide.SlideIndex).Shapes(1).Width = 647.4
PPPres.Slides(PPSlide.SlideIndex).Shapes(1).Top =
PPPres.Slides(PPSlide.SlideIndex).Shapes(1).Left =
PPPres.Slides(PPSlide.SlideIndex).Shapes.Range.Ali gn msoAlignCenters, Tru
PPPres.Slides(PPSlide.SlideIndex).Shapes.Range.Ali gn msoAlignMiddles, Tru
Application.CutCopyMode = Fals
Set objRange = Nothin
Exit Su
errhandler
Application.CutCopyMode = Fals
Resum
End Su
