Hopefully this is an easy one. After I paste an excel graph into powerpoint, is there a way to move it around using the arrow keys instead of dragging? I want more control over the movement that dragging doesn't allow.

Images and excel tables can be moved with the arrow keys, but when using arrow keys with graphs they just select different elements of the graph.

Please help!!
 

Excel Facts

Move date out one month or year
Use =EDATE(A2,1) for one month later. Use EDATE(A2,12) for one year later.
If you pasted it in using Paste Special and as a Picture, then you should be able to move it using the arrow keys while you hold down the Shift key.

When you copy it, hold down the Shift key while you select Copy. This gives you the option to paste it as a picture.
