How move a chart with arrow keys
 
I can move a chart around the spread sheet fine w/ the mouse, but it is
difficult to line this chart up w/ other things in the spread sheet.

How do I move the chart w/ the arrow keys to fine tune its position?

I appreciate your help, -John

Unfortunately the cursor keys will only allow you to move between elements
rather than re-position the chart. However, you can use the ALT key to snap
to the worksheet grid when dragging the chart with the mouse.

Hold down CTRL while clicking on the chart. This selects the chart
object, which is the shape that holds the chart. When selected in this
way, the arrow keys will move the chart.
