chart disappears after inserting another chart into slide

[wy]

When i tried to insert another chart from excel to my powerpoint slide,
(using copy & paste function), the other chart that was already in the slide
disappears and I can't find it anywhere in my powerpoint...
How do i search for it or rather why does this happen?

I guess you're using PPT 2002 (also known as PPT XP) and you have this
Autolayout feature turned on. I think it's in Tools | Autocorrect, but I
can't check it right now to be sure.

Hi Echo S,

I followed your suggestions and turned off Autolayout. Now it works
perfectly!!
Thank you for your help!
