Italicizing in Excel
I am trying to create a graph with a variety of Series of Data. I am able to
select a cell for the Series Name. The problem is that the Chart's font formatting overrides the formatting that I have assigned in the cell. My desire is to put some sort of name such as ABCDEF with the letters ABC (and only ABC) italicized. I am able to make either all things in the graph italics or none (even though they show up in the cell of the spread sheet the way I desire). Is there a way I can do this? Thanks, |

Italicizing in Excel
Hi,
There is no automatic way to get the formatting from the cell reflected in the title. You can however format parts of the title simply by selecting the text within the title box. Click the title and then click again. The cursor should change from a pointer to the I beam. You can not select characters within the title and apply formatting.

Annoying, is it not; but Excel does not carry the format over with =cell_ref
when used in a chart. Looks like a VBA solution is needed. best wishes -- Bernard V Liengme www.stfx.ca/people/bliengme remove caps from email "acacia" wrote in message ...
