Not sure if it is in Excel 97, but on the drawing toolbar in later versions
there is an option 'snap to grid'. see if this helps

Hello:

Using MS Excel 97 SR-1
Guess this dates me pretty well,m but it does most everything I want.

When making a graph, I sometimes put text notes in the graph.

The text seems to be locking itself to a pre-ordained Grid.

Is there any way to eliminate this grid locking, so I can move the text
smoothly to where I want it ?

Thanks,
Bob
