Add label on a chart
I have a line graph to show the no. of customer in each day. In the graph, some peak is shown(i.e. the day with many customer). At each peak, I want to add a label and a line/arrow to show some information. How can I draw the line? -- hurriance ------------------------------------------------------------------------ hurriance's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=30882 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=557444 |

Add label on a chart
Start by displaying the drawing toolbar (View | Toolbars, check Drawing)
You need to make sure the line is part of the chart, not just a line on top of the chart (which will not move when the charts is moved) - we call this grouping To do this click the chart BEFORE you click the line tool on the Drawing toolbar best wishes -- Bernard V Liengme www.stfx.ca/people/bliengme remove caps from email "hurriance" wrote in message ...

Add label on a chart
Hi,
Consider using extra data series to highlight special points in your data. Jon Peltier has an explanation here. http://peltiertech.com/Excel/Charts/PointAtPoints.html I also have an example here, http://www.andypope.info/ngs/ng47.htm Cheers Andy hurriance wrote: I have a line graph to show the no. of customer in each day.
