This works very well, I use it all the time. One thing I have noticed, compared to Visio, when aligning (top, bottom, left, right) Excel chooses the extreme most object where Visio aligns to the first selected no matter if it is at the extreme position.
This is not a failing but an attribute to keep in mind when trying to align objects for your beautiful presentations.
