Hi Dawn -

Data tables are of limited usefulness. They can only contain a limited amount of
data, they're not flexible in terms of formatting. But you still might have some
options. Have you tried changing to a portrait orientation? Could you embed the
chart in a sheet and use the worksheet range under the chart as a more readily
customized table?

I have a chart with 19 lines of data and I have been requested to print the
data table with the chart. When I add the data table so that I can read the
text (e.g., 11 or 12 pt font), I cannot see all the data table line in the
page viewer or print it all out. I can only print out all the data table
lines along with the chart if I make the font so small that it renders the
data table useless (or similarly, if I shrink the size of the size the chart
so that what I am looking at is so small you can't read the labels anymore).
In either case, when I do this I also I end up with half a "blank" page. How
can I shift the aspect/ratio of the chart or change the size of the chart
separately from the table AND how can I force Excel to let me use the entire
page of space I have available?
