Default Show Series Name

The chart you show just has a legend. I do not want a legend as I have too
many series and the colours begin to repeat. want the series name on the
chart next to the series - perhaps by the first data point.

Sorry, ignore my previous posting as I have now realized it was what you have
already done.

I have posted a chart to:-

Item number 48 towards the top of my home page.

This is pulled directly from MS documentation.

I hope that this might help you.

If it does please click Yes.

Thanks.

Hi
I have a line graph showing 24 months of data. As the colours begin to
repeat themselves it is difficult to tell which series is which. I would just
like to have, on the chart next to each series something showing the series
name. I am using Excel 2007 and the option to show series on the more data
labels option shows series name on every data point. given that I have over
30 data points and 24 series the chart looks messy. is there a simple waty to
show series name next to each line/
Thankyou
