Sorry Jon, didn't realise I was doing anything wrong, I just hit the Reply Button. I thought Data Labels were just a copy of the Values used for the Chart. I didn't realise you could Edit them.

But if you use data labels it wouldn't. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Peltier Technical Services, Inc.http://PeltierTech.com/WordPress/ _______ "Pete" wrote in message ....

To update the textboxes would require VBA code to calculate there position in relation to the chart and the data. Cheers Andy Pete wrote: I have some charts that are annotated with Text Boxes that line up with that Months data. If I add extra months to the Chart then I have to move all the Text boxes along a little to the left to remain matched up with the Data it corresponds to, can this be automatically done? Thanks Pete -- Andy Pope, Microsoft MVP - Excelhttp://www.andypope.info Andy, I think I've misled you. I don't want to update the Text in the Text Boxes I just want them to remain lined up with the Month that they correspond to when extend the Range of the Source Data for the Chart..- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Hi, Don't suppose you could give an example of the code required or know where there is an example. VBA is not my strong point. Thanks Peter- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text -- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - |
