Mix Titles with Cell Links and Text
I would like to make a chart title have a mix of letters and a cell reference
formula similar to what I do in other cells. For example: ="text" & (left(A1,4)) I would hope this is possible but it keeps giving me an error. I have used just the ="text" & A1 and it works but when I add the formula, it says no. Any ideas? Jeff |

What about calculating the forumla in a different cell, and then
referencing that cell in the title? Jeff G wrote: I would like to make a chart title have a mix of letters and a cell reference formula similar to what I do in other cells.

That's always an option but my spreadsheet already has 7 sheets and uses all
columns in the main sheet where the charts are located. I was just trying to combine my efforts for simplicity sake.

It's not an option, it's the only way.
