Greetings, All:
 
Yesterday I reported difficulty exporting a graph.  Here is what I found out:  
 
Mark Durst reported reproducing the trouble, and suggested saving the file(s) as .sgr file(s) and using the PowerPoint wizard as a workaround.  Naomi Robbins had a similar suggestion.  She also suggested that when a graphic is too big for Power Point, insert it into Word, play with it in Word, and then copy it to Power Point.  Rick Ditmars, Jean V Adams and Michael Conklin said to try Windows Metafile instead of the Enhanced version.  That seems to work, and the resulting file is smaller by 2/3 as well.
 
My thanks to all!
