I need to make a few charts and graphs for a powerpoint presentation- (mainly dealing with economic and political matters).. pie charts, bar graphs, etc.. based on statistics and other data.
Is there any way to do that using Microsoft Word?
If not, what's the easiest way to do so? Thanks.

Microsoft Excel is the way to go if you're going to be processing data. Just sort your information into rows and columns accordingly. When all your data is in a table, highlight the cells that you are using. Use the file menu and click INSERT. Under that menu, you should find a button that says "Insert Chart" with a rather distinctive icon. Using those options, you can make all kinds of graphs. EX: Bar graphs, scatter plots, pie graphs, etc.
You can fill in the dialog boxes to label your graph and when it is finalized, you can copy and paste it into a word document if you'd like.
