    Hello Greg

    Thanks works perfectly - I notice that you can only refer to a cell, and cannot build a string though.

    E.g. I have a cell A1 with 29 in it, but the Chart Tile needs to be 29" TV's, so I tried putting '=A1 & " TV's". Not serious though, I built the string in another cell and referred to that.

    Thanks again!!

    Hi again Richard,

    Many thanks for the feedback - delighted to have helped.

    You're right about being able to enter only a cell reference, and you've successfully discovered the workaround!

    For information, if you want to add extra titles/messages/notes to your chart, just select the chart itself (not the chart title) & use the same procedure - enter = and then select the cell whose contents you want to use. This will place a new text box "somewhere" on the chart, and you can then position & format it to suit.

    Best regards,

    Greg M

    Hello Greg

    Was just fiddling with textboxes when I saw your post, and the Extra bit at the bottom about additional info blocks - so it was actually just what I was looking for!!!!!

    Thanks again
