Double-click to activate the chart. Right-click the legend and select Format Legend. On the Font tab, decrease the size of the font. Or you can drag the handles on the legend (they become available when you select the legend) and resize the legend.

T TAJ Simmons Jan 30, 2004 #5 It does have its place.......turn off! No seriously...it is sometimes useful up to a point..... maybe if it had a % or min and max feature e.g. I want it 20pt....the smallest you can make it is 16pt or the largest is 24pt Or I want it 20pt...min 20% smaller max 20% bigger. If you find this suggestion useful...email it to ms wish please...
