A more complicated approach would use a static range as the data label
source range. You would use a lookup table that had the date and desired
label, and in the data label source range, you would use a lookup using the
date corresponding to the cell in the data label range to find the
corresponding label in the lookup table.

Thank you, but that clearly does not meet my objective.

You could use a data label, except the data label is linked to a point

a given index. In other words, if you added a data label to November, the
11th point, if you then delete January, November becomes the 10th point,
and
the label stays with the 11th point.

Is there any way to annotate a point on a chart, and then have that
annotation always move with the point without further interaction?

As an example, I would like to add a note to a data point for November
2006.
My data spans the last 12 months. Each month, I delete the first point
in
the series, and add a new point at the end.

Thanks.
