Default Why can't I add a label for each of my pie slices

Instead of trying to enter values in the dialog, enter them in the sheet,
and reference this range in the dialog.

Interesting that you'd think OO is a better alternative than updating to
Office 2003.

When I go to the select data dialog there are two labels for my pie chart.
1
and 2. I click on edit above the two items and I can enter one value and
that
is all. The other just becomes blank and there is no way to put a
name/value
on the chart for it after this faulty editing dialog.
Does anyone know how Excel 2007 should work and why it's not intuitive any
more? How can I have a pie chart with a label for only one slice? I
might
have to go to open office to find a product worth using.
