I use a lot of excel charts and tables and had been inserting them as
objects but the file sizes were huge. So it was brilliant to get this tip
from Chip Pearson's Excel Site:
Q: Can I copy a selection of cells as an image?

A: Yes, you can. Select the cells you want to copy. Hold down the shift key
and got to the Edit menu, and choose the Copy Picture option. In the dialog
box that appears, choose "As Shown On Screen" for Appearance, and "Picture"
as format. This will copy the selection to the clipboard. You can then paste
it into a PowerPoint presentation. This method will will also work with
Excel charts. Select the chart object and the follow the steps listed above.
