CHANGING LEGEND TEXT
I wish to change the text in the legend box from say- (Series 1) to (MPG) or
anything that has a relevance to the graph. This was done easily in Works Spreadsheet and previous versions of Excel. Using 2007 Student & Home version. |

You might find the answer in the offline help.
But as with any problem the key is knowing the question or search text to enter in order to get the required solution. Cheers Andy mareng wrote: Thanks that was easy to follow.
