Default Cell content in text box in chart

I have some charts in a spreadsheet that display percentage comparisons
between categories. I want to indicate a sample size so the reader has some
idea of what the percentages mean. I've accomplished this by displaying the
contents of the totals cells in a text box. It worked great unitl I added
numbers to the data and the total in the text box doesn't update even though
the target cell calculated normally. I tried reeestablishing the connection
to get the text box to update, but no go. I have to delete the text box,
create a new one, then establish the connection to the cells to update the
data.

Is it true that cells displayed in text boxes don't automaticall update when
the data changes?

Thanks in advance...Chris
