Default Problems when pasting as link in Powerpoint

Hi Everybody,
Stumbled upon a rather curious little thing (bug?) when trying to pase a chart as a link ( so that when the info the chart is based on changes, the chart updates. This does not happen if i pase the chart in as a picture)

As can be seen here in the first screenshot, this is the Powerpoint template i would like to paste to:



When activating a text box in the Powerpoint presentation and select paste, it fits the chart correctly in the text box- as can be seen below:




The error (user or machine ) occurs here, i activate the text box like i do when pasting normally - however this time i choose paste special and "paste link" and as you can see below the chart goes all over the place and does contain itself within the text box.





I have tried: different charts, different PC´s - this leads me to believe that this is a general bug/feature in Office. Any advice or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.
