Hi,

I don't think you can attach a hyperlink to a data label. You can attach
hyperlinks to text boxes on chart.

If this helps, please click the Yes button

Hi,

You can not apply hyperlinks to the data labels but with some VBA you
can hook into the chart events and mimic a hyperlink.

create a chart and right click the sheet tab. Pick View code and then
post the following.

Private Sub Chart_Select(ByVal ElementID As Long, _
ByVal Arg1 As Long, ByVal Arg2 As Long)

If ElementID = xlDataLabel Then
If Arg1 = 1 Then
If Arg2 = 2 Then
' selected 2 datalabel of series 1
ActiveWorkbook.FollowHyperlink "http:\\" _
& ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(Arg1).DataLabels(Arg2 ).Text
End If
End If
End If

End Sub

You can find more information on chart events here

To add a text box select the chart and just type something. It will
automatically add a textbox. You can then add a hyperlink to that.
