Default Some text boxes on an embedded chart do not show up

Why is it that the last one or two text boxes on an embedded chart do not
display when I click outside the chart area?

I am using 16 text boxes on a chart instead of the legend as it makes it
easier to read. I then select an area that includes the chart and copy it
to Paint (see note 1), where I save it as a JPG as I want to load it onto
the web. The Excel file and the JPG file can be found at the following links

Why is it that the last one or two text boxes do not show up when I click
outside the Chart Area. In the files above the text box "Cyber Voortrekker"
does not show up when I click outside the chart area (nor is it visible in
the JPG image - it is the last pink coloured series at the bottom of the
chart)? I am using Excel 2000. All the text boxes have been entered in the
same way (ie I have ensured that the chart area has been selected so that
the text box is on the embedded chart and not on the spreadsheet).

I am really puzzled by this.

NOTE 1: I find that the definition of the final JPG is better if I select a
spreadsheet area enclosing the chart as opposed to clicking on the chart
itself before the copy/paste to paint. Are the any better ways of creating a
JPG image of an Excel chart?

Many thanks
Laurence
