Default Graph Legend Key

Excel Office 2007.

When using a graph for example pie, Is there a way of making the legend
*keys* larger?

I dont want the legend words larger just the coloured square keys, that
match the colours on the graph.

I can only seem to enlarge both at the same time (increasing the font), or
make them more spaced out (draging the space avaliable for the legend).

Cheers

Take out the Legend altogether and replace the coloured bullet points and
text with Text Boxes.

You can then background fill the Text Boxes with whatever colour you like
and make them any size you like.

If my comments have helped please hit Yes.

Thanks.
