Refresh Report

Use Refresh Report to update all tables, charts, and shapes in a PowerPoint presentation.

Refresh report in the OfficeReports Ribbon Tab

Use Refresh Report when changes affect multiple OfficeReports objects in the report.

Examples include:

  • adding new data
  • changing variable texts or category names
  • adjusting formulas for derived banner variables
  • changing report filters
  • replacing the workbook with the workbook containing the next wave

Refreshing Reports When Using Raw Data​

In PowerPoint, Refresh Report automatically refreshes the workbook first when it is open in the Workbook Pane. This updates all crosstabs before the presentation is refreshed.

When the workbook is open in Excel, refresh the workbook manually before refreshing the presentation.
