Select the title, click in the formula bar, type = (the equals key), then
click on the cell you want linked to the title. This works for chart title,
axis titles, textboxes, and data labels.

Got it about half an hour ago, but thanks for your help. As an adjunct
question, is it possible to dynamically set the axis titles?

Define your ranges as sheet-level names. This means when entering the
name,
use Sheet1!MyName rather than just MyName. (Jan Karel Pieterse's Name
Manager at http://jkp-ads.com can easily convert global to local names.)
The
chart no longer cares what the workbook name is. The series formula says:

=SERIES(Sheet1!$C$4,Sheet1!myX,Sheet1!myY,1)

Even if I create the name based on the Excel worksheet, after I paste it
into Word, the reference still works. The series formula looks like:

=SERIES(Sheet1!$C$4,'Chart in Document4.doc'!myX,'Chart in
Document4.doc'!myY,1)

Jon - that's fine, but I want to use named ranges in my chart. Here's
what I
am trying to do. I have a word document that includes an embedded
sheet
that
can contain up to 32 data points. I have graph_x and graph_y defined
dynamically to represent the length of the data set. The problem is
using
these named ranges in the source data dialog. As you know, the normal
syntax
includes the name of the workbook followed by a ".xls". I tried to
find
out
the name of the embedded sheet by doing a query in the immediate window
in
VBA, and here is what I got:

Worksheet in C: QC QC standard procedures Official Procedures
STP-QC-12.doc

I think you can see my problem. I am starting to suspect there is no
way
to
do this wihtout invoking VB, which I am hesitant to do because of my
lack
of
familiarity with Word objects.

Thanks for any help you can offer.

If the entire workbook is embedded, a quick test here shows that you

use
simply the 'Sheet1!$A$1' link referenced just to the worksheet.
ThisWorkbook
is only known to VBA.

Does anyone know how to reference dynamicially named ranges in a
chart
contained within an embedded chart in MS Word? I know how to do
this
in
Excel, but the name of the workbook is needed. As far as I can
tell,
the
name of the embedded book in Word is "ThisWorkbook", but I get an
error
when
I try to use it.
