Shilpa -

You can use Rob Bovey's Chart Labeler (a free addin from
http://appspro.com) or John Walkenbach's Chart Tools (another freebie
from http://j-walk.com) to apply text from a worksheet range to your
datapoints. Use the Centered option for the position of the labels,
then format the series to have no markers and no lines. The labels stay
where the points had been.
