Mac Forum / Applications / PowerPoint / March 2006Charts Problem using a MacBook Pro
Just received a new MacBook Pro (Intel Dual Core) and have run into a problem with PP, that may or may not be attributed to it running omn Intel. When I try to insert a chart object into a slide and the datasheet pop open, I cannot enter any information into any of the cells. I can delete or erase existing data, but I cannot insert new data into any cell whatsoever. My workaround is to use Excel than copy & paste into the PP slide. Any clues as to what the problem may be? Gregg Charts Problem using a MacBook ProHi Gregg, Thanks for posting this. I just tried this scenario on my intel dual core imac and office 2004 (11.2) and I do not repro this issue. Can you please let me know what version of office you are using .. Once I have that information I will investigate this more and let you know if I have any update.

Gregg Same version as you 11.2 Weird. It¹s almost as if the keyboard isn¹y being rtecognized, save for the delete key. All keyboard inputs handled normally outside of PP¹s charting function though On 3/10/06 1:58 PM, in article uwnyiIJRGHA.5248@TK2MSFTNGP09.phx.gbl, > Hi Gregg, > Thanks for posting this.

Gregg Re: Charts Problem using a MacBook ProHello Gregg, I'm still in the process of investigating this but can you try this and tell me if this helps? Go into your ~/Library/Preferences/Microsoft folder and delete or move (to another location) the two files below. By ~, I mean your home directory/folder. com.microsoft.Graph.prefs.plist Microsoft Graph Toolbars (11) Afterwards, try re-inserting your graph and typing in the cells. Please reply to the group as to whether this helps. Thanks, Andrew  SignatureThis posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. Same version as you - 11.2 Weird.

Gregg Andrew: Did as you advised and it seems to be working like a charm. Am assuming I should keep those files removed for time being...any downsides or work-arounds I need to be aware of?
