Default Axis Labels Cut off in Excel Chart

Eric

Use A Bar chart, this places the LAbels on the left of the graph and is
better for long titles.

Hi,

In an Excel chart using a column of labels for the Category Axis Labels, the
labels are being truncated by Excel in the chart. For instance, "Middle
East" appears on the chart as "Middle". "Netherlands" appears as "Nether"
Pretty amusing, but not very useful in business. I have tried various
adjustments to column width, etc. without success. Can anyone suggest a fix?
Your assistance is appreciated!

Thanks,
Eric T.
