I have two linked files through formulas. If I want to copy the cells to a presentation as a GDI Metafile the cells that have linked formulas don't paste the data. Instead they show NA. 

I use = to connect one sheet to the other. 
To eliminate the error when pasting I copy the cells and paste them as number (since that makes the paste to presentation work)
Copy the cells to past in presentation
Paste as GDI Metafile
Use control-Z in the sheet to revert back to formulas
Cell data is shifted down one row
If the original sheet is open I can reselect the correct cells
I can also just F2 and backspace the last cell number, retype it and close the cell and it gathers the correct cell.
