Excel 2007 XY Scatter Chart

E

Eddie Holder

Hi

In previous versions of Excel, if you had a XY scatter chart, you were able
to drag the data point on the chart to change the value in the cell that is
used for the data point.

I cannot seem to do this in Excel 2007. Can anyone tell me if there is an
option somewhere that can be turned on, or is this a excellent feature that
has been removed from Excel 2007?

Thanks for your help or responses!

Hi

It seems to be unsuppoted in Excel 2007:

Check this link: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/excel/HA101988951033.aspx#Charting
Look for "Direct manipulation of data points on charts"

But I am not going to miss this feature much though.

Yes, the feature has been removed. I didn't think I'd miss it, and I don't.
But a lot of people are upset that it's gone.
