superscript text in legend
I have created some superscript text in some of the column headings in my
table, i.e., Gender[a], Education[b], with [a] and [b] being superscriptted. However, in the legend of my chart, the superscript text just appears regular size, so it looks like I have committed typos. Is there a way I can maintain the "superscriptness" of certain characters in my legend text? |

No. Unfortunately, when a chart uses a cell to title (or text box) it does
not take the format with it. -- Bernard V Liengme www.stfx.ca/people/bliengme remove caps from email "hogon" wrote in message ...

As Bernard noted, with Excel's charting tools you can't. However, you can
always eliminate the standard legend and create a picture of worksheet cells as an alternative. This example explains how to do so: http://www.pdbook.com/index.php/exce...s_camera_tool/ This method allows you to perform custom formatting on the cells that you want to copy into the chart. The example shows a border around the legend but it is not necessarily needed. You have total control over what you want to copy into the chart. ---- Regards, John Mansfield http://www.pdbook.com "hogon" wrote: I have created some superscript text in some of the column headings in my table, i.e., Gender[a], Education[b], with [a] and [b] being superscriptted.
