Help !

When trying to import data from an Excel Chart (Excel v.X) in a new Keynote slide, after I opened the chart data editor and selected the upper-left cell of the placeholder chart, the data is imported in this one cell, and not distributed in the other cells which corresponds to the Excel-chart. And the same thing happens, if I select all or some of the cells... data is always imported in the one left upper cell...

I don t get it.. what should I do ?
Any suggestions would REALLY help.

Thanx.

Can you not simply copy the cells in Excel and then paste them directly onto a Keynote slide without going through the editor?

I thought I could.. but it pastes the whole table into the first cell, and not in the other cells of the table... must be a bug... and still no update for keynote in sight..

Thanx
