Any,
Thanks, just what I was after however I'm going to be greedy now. Is it possible to add a second line of text to the title? I can currently edit the title on the graph and add a carriage return and hence a second line in the title. is this possible, like X&Y sub headings? Dean "Andy Pope" wrote in message ...

Hi,
If the cell contains a newline character (ALT+ENTER) or a formula version CHAR(10) then that should be reflected in the chart title. Although the formatting of both lines will be the same. You can use other text elements of the chart to hold cell linked text. such as x-axis and y-axis titles. By add a dummy data series and setting it to the secondary axis you can also use the secondary x and y titles. Also Data labels can be linked. And as you have done you can embed a textbox within the chart. Cheers Andy Dkso wrote: Any, Thanks, just what I was after however I'm going to be greedy now.
