Is there a way to overcome Excel's inability to decimal-align or right-align
numbers in the cells of a data table that is displayed as a chart option?
Alignment is easy in spreadsheets but in data tables within charts, it seems
to be impossible.

Have you thought of making your own chart table.
Copy the data to cells under the chart using Past Special Transform if
needed
Make borders around the cells; adjust size to match chart
Print
A lot of work maybe but a possible solution if alignment is so important
best wishes

I did think of making my own chart but not of using Transform. Thanks for
the suggestion!
