Hi,

For me I see a visual clue by the 4 dots enclosing each data point as I move
through.
Additionally if you click the Layout or Format contextual tab you will see
the name of the currently selected item in the Current Selection group.

Cheers
Andy

I have an addition.

I have now seen that on at leaste some charts the point highlighter
does appear in excel 2007.

In one file of mine with two charts on a worksheet, the point
highlighter appears on one chart but not the other. In all other
excel versions, the highlighter always appears on all charts.
