in a powerpoint presentation when i click on chart from the menu is that an
excel chart or do have to go to object new then click excel chart

Hi Sonja -

That is an MS Graph chart, which is "like" an Excel chart, but not as
good. If you have data in Excel, it's easier to make the chart in Excel,
then use some variation of Copy (in Excel) and Paste (in PowerPoint).

I have some hints at the beginning of this web page that you way find
useful:
