Line chart in Power Point

[Guest]

I have a line chart in a Power Point slide that shows the monthly progression
of our quality numbers. We don't want the data labels to show for each
point, but we would like it to show for the latest month (the last point).
Right now we just put a text box next to the chart and type in the number,
but I thought there might be a way to make it show that number automatically.
Does anyone have a suggestion?

Thanks very much

Double-click the line, go to Data Labels tab, and select Values. Then click
a label once to select all the labels and click again to select the
individual label. Hit Delete to remove the selected label. Repeat for the
rest of the data points.

There may be an easier way, but I'm not aware of one in a PPT graph. In
Excel, you could link a textbox to the appropriate cell on the worksheet,
but you can't do that in PPT.
