Microsoft PowerPoint 2010: Working with Tables and Charts

Presenting complex data or statistics in a visually appealing way in PowerPoint allows viewers to readily grasp the significant points. This Video On Demand demonstrates how to create and insert a table, enter data into a table, format a table, insert a row or a column and edit a table’s contents and appearance. It explains how to format tables and stylize borders, the color of cells, and apply preformatted styles and visual effects such as shadows and bevels. Viewers learn how to navigate through a table.

The video training also teaches you how to import and insert a table or a chart from another application, such as Excel or Word, and manipulate it. Viewers learn how to browse for a file to insert, decide whether to link to the object or embed it into a slide. Inserting a table or chart by copying-and-pasting is also explained.

Manipulating charts and tables in PowerPoint 2010 is significantly improved from earlier versions of the program. PowerPoint 2010 users save themselves a lot of time by understanding the efficiencies of table and chart creation, insertion and linking. This video training makes the processes easy to understand, and lessons can be rewound and replayed for clarity. Anyone new to PowerPoint or migrating from a previous version should watch this video.
