    Help pasting linked object from Excel into PowerPoint

    Hello All,

    Below is some code that I currently use that works perfectly to copy preformatted data in Excel to PowerPoint. However, the data pasted into PowerPoint from Excel is a picture and I would like it to be a linked object. For instance, if I manually copy the data from Excel and, once in PowerPoint, Paste Special (ctrl+alt+v) and select Paste Link --> "Microsoft Excel Worksheet (code) Object"... I get exactly what I want.

    This bloats the file size to over 100mb (I have 22 slides to perform this operation on).

    Many thanks in advance.

    I discovered the solution and am pasting below for anyone interested.

    Replace:

    This pastes the data from Excel as a linked object. A linked object will update from the source whereas a picture cannot update, hence the advantage of using a linked object.
