how do I put a text label on a point in an XY scatter
select the series, then select the point (two single clicks), then right
click and choose the format option. On the Data Label tab, add any default label and click OK. Select this label (again, two single clicks), then click the select the text in the label and type whatever you want. If you have a lot of points, and the labels are in the worksheet, use one of these free Excel utilities to add labels in bulk: Rob Bovey's Chart Labeler, http://appspro.com/Utilities/ChartLabeler.htm John Walkenbach's Chart Tools, http://www.j-walk.com/ss/excel/files/charttools.htm - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Tutorials and Custom Solutions Peltier Technical Services, Inc. - http://PeltierTech.com _______ "Paul" wrote in message ...
