The easiest way to add text to a chart is to use a textbox. Click on
the chart and start typing. XL will add a textbox to the chart. You
can reposition/format it as desired.

If you must use chart labels, use either of Bovey's or Walkenbach's
solutions. If you decide to do it yourself see
Dynamic Chart Title

The same concept that applies to a title applies to labels.

OK, here's the story.
My wife needs a graph that is way out of my league.
Here's the requirements and oh by the way this is due in completion by
Sunday night: ; )

I need to create a graph that will be embedded in a word document.
The graph itself will be a simple x y scatter, but it needs to be divided
into 4 equal squares.
In each square I need to write words.

I don't even know if it can be done or where to begin.
