    Save your marriage at all costs!!!

    You said "Very Professional" and this is the key. If you jump to Excel and ask the audience how they want to slice and dice and sort the data and be able to accomplish it - to me this is "professional". When they are convinced you can do what you claim and give them the answers they ask for, you jump back to Powerpoint and continue the next topic.

    In this way you present large topics from Powerpoint and drill down to specifics using Excel.

    I just answered another question dealing with Crystal Reports at: http://www.crystalreports.com/produc...e-products.asp
    Play the videos on this page and see if they are what you want. I'm an Excel guy and have no knowledge about the linked software. It seems too good to be true but is kind of what you are asking for.

    Thanks for the links, I am looking into these, I hope there is some way to do this, would think that Microsoft with all the power of excel and excel macros would have made it so you can do this.

    I'm with Marvin on this one.
    Just go into excel and due the data/charting part of the presentation.

    And I really hope you don't have to demonstrate all of those 3,628,800 charts!
    Cheers
