Default Notes in graphs

I want to insert into a straight-line graph a short note to explain unusual
changes. Is this possible and, if so how please?

Thanks

Default Notes in graphs

Active the chart (click on it)
If using pre-Excel2007, use View Toolbars to make the Drawing toolbar
visible
In Excel 2007; open the Insert tab on Ribbon and look at Shapes
Now using with the Drawing toolbar(XL2003) or the Shapes group(Xl2007) add
a shape and put some text in it
These are some nice 'callouts' with pointer. Experimenting is needed to get
a result you really like
best wishes
