ExcelBanter - View Single Post - Why can't I embed a button on a chart in Excel 2003?

No, you couldn't do it in xl2000 either. Check the controls I think you
will either find them to be from the Forms toolbox or not embedded
within the chart object if its a chart on a worksheet.

Thanks. I know that it can be done in Excel 2000 so I would assume that they
have removed this feature for a reason. Any ideas?

Hi,

You can not embed Active X controls within a chart and or chartsheet.
You can however use the controls from the Forms toolbox.

In Office Excel 2003 (11.6355.6360) SP1 I am trying to put a command button
and a couple of radio buttons on a chart. I cannot select any of the
controls on the Control Toobox as I can in Excel 2000.
