Dates ****fting in Excel charts pasted into PPT

by sandrahoo@[EMAIL PROTECTED] Jul 18, 2008 at 10:53 AM

Version: 2004
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)
Processor: Power PC

Ok, here's my quandry, hoping someone else may have seen this before, or
may have an idea as to why this is happening.

I work on a Mac, running PPT 2004. Client works on a PC - not exactly sure
what version of PPT.

I create graphs in Excel, paste them into PPT (all on the Mac) and share
them with my PC clients. They double click on the chart in PPT to launch
Excel and look at the data, magically all of the dates (X axis is
month/year data) ****ft back in time 4 years. (What was once June 2008 data
is now June 2004).

My PC-based buddies occasionally do the same thing in reverse, and when I
double click on the chart to launch Excel and look at the data driving the
charts, the dates all magically ****ft *forward* 4 years.

Which leaves both of us saying, "Huh?"

Please for give me if this question has been asked an answered before - I
tried a few keyword searches, but honestly not sure that I'm using the
best keywords. I tried everything I could think of short of "date
wonkiness", and so far I'm not finding any answers.

Thanks to all for any ideas or help you may be able to share!

Sandra
