I'm new to Excel (using Excel 2002). I have a chart that shows a running
list of dates and the account balance on that date. I want to add some text
to a couple different data points within the chart to simply show when
specific changes took place.

For example, I want to add "moved investment from ABC to XYZ" on the data
point for Dec. 1, 2005 in the graph so I can clearly see on the graph when
specific changes took place and how those changes effected things.

How can I add text to a couple different data points along my chart?

Thanks...

The free Excel add-in "Chart Data Labels", which you can download
from my website will do that. You can also link the cell text and cell
formatting to the labels and position them...
