Hi all!

I'm having a tough time figuring out how to temporarily disable PowerPoint charts which are linked to Excel. The problem is, whenever I copy a slide and try to paste it elsewhere, Office attempts to update all of the links in the entire PowerPoint. Since the slide deck has so many links, this takes an awful lot of time to do. I don't want to break the links completely as I would lose any ability to keep them dynamic. I've checked all of the advanced options within PowerPoint, but cannot find any way to temporarily disable links from updating. I've searched the web for a solution, but have come up short. I apologize if this question was posed previously. Thanks so much!

Excel Facts

Fastest way to copy a worksheet?
Hold down the Ctrl key while dragging tab for Sheet1 to the right. Excel will make a copy of the worksheet.
The only solution I've found so far is to have the XLSX spreadsheet open behind the PPTX, but sometimes that's just not possible if others are using it.
