FIGURE PPT 3-1  Referring to Figure PPT 3-1 above, the datasheet on the right-hand side of the window has data in it already. How could one change the data?
A) Click the cell and then type the numbers or text in the Excel window
B) Open up a separate Cell Data dialog box in the Excel window
C) Click the datasheet and import it into PowerPoint, and then enter the data
