Default Add text box via the keyboard only

Is there any way in 2007 to add a text box onto a chart sheet without using
the mouse? In 2003 you used to just be able to type into the formula bar and
hit enter. In 2007 I have typed using the keyboard navigation AltNX but
then you need to use your mouse to draw the box, any suggestions?

Hello,

For charting, the ability to automatically create textboxes when typing was
deprecated in 2007. This link will take you to additional items that have
been discontinued.
