YTD to appear in the Charts
 

Hi,

My WB contains many Charts linked to many tables etc.
Every month I update them in order to get an YearTo Date situation.
A remark I got from a user is that in the chart is not evident which month
I'm referring to, (although it's YTD, during a presentation it would be
better to see, say, December YTD).
Do I have a possibility to get this information embedded in the plot area
every month automatically? So far, I have to digit it in the title of the
chart.
Bear in mind, that many of my sheets have a specific cell containing the
month in number, for instance, YTD 12, maybe there's a way to link that cell
to the Chart?

Thank you for your help

put a textbox on the chart (or use a title). Then select the textbox

go to the formulabar

put in an equal sign,
navigate to cell with the mouse an click in it.

Hit enter.

You don't even need to draw a textbox. Select the chart, press the equals key, and
select the cell.
