The Table feature offered in PowerPoint allows users to insert a table, draw a table or insert a table using an Excel spreadsheet. Learn how!

Launch Microsoft Excel and open the spreadsheet that you want to link to PowerPoint. Select the data you want to insert into the PowerPoint slide by dragging over the area of the data.

Therefore, using Excel to first create your charts and then importing them into PowerPoint allows you to create presentations with chart data that is more accurate.

Launch Microsoft Office Access 2007 and open the database that contains the table you want to insert into the PowerPoint 2007 presentation. Select the "Datasheet" tab to view the table.
