RE: Powerpoint docs randomly drop charts (MOSS 2007)

2011-07-26 Thread Nigel Hertz
:p In this case, I think they do.

We try to make all of our charts embedded in the pptx file.

Occasionally we have to insert a linked chart, but in large the problem seems 
to not discriminate between emedded or linked charts.

Yeah, I hear that a lot too. Would your users know the difference? :)

There is no easy way to check this and no "Publish" or "Preflight" checks 
within PowerPoint. It all comes down to how they inserted the conent.

I was wondering that myself, but when I asked the reply was "definitely not".

Are the charts linked to external data by any chance?

Hi guys

I saw a call logged today where a few people mentioned that some PowerPoint 
documents seem to randomly "drop" any charts that are embedded in them, and the 
next time the document is opened, the charts are back (or, randomly, not). It 
doesn't appear to matter who the user is or what PC is being used to access the 
teamsites - it's completely random.

I was just wondering if anyone had experienced this previously?

Basically, the server is MOSS 2007 SP2 (December '10 CU) and the clients are a 
mix of Win XP and Win 7, with either MS Office 2007 or MS Office 2010.

Nigel
