wrap text in a chart data table

[Warren B]

Hi,

Im have created a graph, which ive had no problem, but i when i click the
option to "show data table" i cannot get the titles to wrap to the box, i
have searched but i cannot find an option to wrap the text as i need it for a
presentation.
I do not want to just simply alter the font size if possible. Is there
anyway of doing this?

Data tables in charts are not flexible, either regarding their contents or
their formatting. You could create a table in the cells near the chart,
include what you want in it, and format it however you like.

But why was that functionality available in Excel 2003?!! The chart data
table text used to wrap nicely. Given all the many other stability issues, I
think I'll switch back to Office 2003!

It's accidental that the functionality was there in 2003. Data Tables have
always been disappointing, and so I have never used them. There are more
important reasons than Data Tables to switch back to 2003.
