I was clicking on the line/marker in front of the series
in the legend and not the name of the series, which
highlights both the name and line/marker. Now it works.
Thanks.

That is what I surmised from your first post and that is
the answer I gave.
Click the legend *item* once to select the whole legend
and a second time to
select just one of the legend *items*, then press delete

I don't want to delete the entire legend, I can do that.
What I want is to just delete one series from the
legend,
and still have the series I deleted from the legend show
graphed on the chart. In other words, let's say I have
four series graphed on the chart and all four series
show
in the legend. The end result I am looking for would be
to still have all four series graphed on the chart, but
the legend would show only series 1,2, and 4, with
series
3 deleted from the legend.

Simply click twice on the legend entry. (The first
selects the whole legend)
and press delete. This deletes the legend and leaves the
chart series data

I have charts with several series and the legend shows
all
series. Is there a way to delete one or more series
only
from the legend, but still have the data for those
series
still show on the chart?
