built with MS Graph in powerpoint instead? (I mean besides building it in
excel and then pasting in on the ppt slide)

In the next column, construct the text of the desired labels. An example
formula would be

=A2&CHAR(10)&B2&CHAR(10)&C2

where CHAR(10) is a carriage return. Use these constructed labels as the
data labels.

John,
I have created the macro (which works beautifully) and want to know if the
following is possible:

For an x-y chart with the following points:

x y
A 1 5
B 2 10
C 3 12
D 4 30

Is it possible to get the data label for each point in the graph to read:
(for C, as an example)

C
3
12

Many thanks,
M John

kbpratt,

In addition to Rob's XY Chart Labeler addin, you can also use the
following
macro:

Sub AddLabels()
Dim RngLabels As Range
Dim Ser As Series
Dim i As Long
If TypeName(Selection) = "Series" Then
Set Ser = Selection
Set RngLabels = Application.InputBox(prompt:="Select the label
range:", Type:=8)
Ser.HasDataLabels = True
For i = 1 To Ser.Points.Count
Ser.Points(i).DataLabel.Text = RngLabels(i)
Next i
Else
MsgBox "Select a series in a chart."
End If
End Sub

In the dialog box, add the reference to the data source like
"Sheet1!A1:A5".

Hello-

Is there any way to label individual points in an XY scatter with data
from
ajdacent cells? For exampl, I have 3 columns with a name, an x value
and a y
value. I want to plot points with the XY data and label each point
with the
names from the first column. Seems simple but I can't figure it out
