Text Boxes added to Chart Series
 
How do I keep text boxes that I've added to a data series with the column
they belong on? If I change the size of the chart in anyway, I have to move
the text boxes back to their respective spots on the chart.

Text Boxes added to Chart Series
 
Text boxes are not added to a series, but to the chart. This prevents their
sticking to any particular points. Could you add them as data labels? If you
use a built-in position (i.e., don't drag them around) they will stick with
their associated points
