Hey,
I found this code from Export All Excel Charts To Power Point ~ My Engineering World (thanks) and I'd like to update it so that the code pulls any text boxes on the same worksheet and copies them to the same powerpoint slide as where the chart comes from. I want it to continue to run through so that from each worksheet all the charts and the textboxes end up on one slide (one slide per per worksheet).
And for bonus points how do I get it to center all the copied items horizontally on the powerpoint slide?
I hope this is clear enough, I've been playing about with the code and can make either all charts and text boxes from one page move across, or all the charts or all the text boxes, but I am struggling to combine this.
