I want to just label and highlight the min and max values in an XY chart and
have them move appropriately if the data change. i saw a tutorial on line
about doing so in 2003 but I can't get it to work in 2007.
 
The formulas work, but the cut and paste doesn't. (from the earlier link,
starting in step 4.) There is no "paste special" process and just cutting and
pasting does not link the min and max data to the main data set.
 
Herbert,
Still no go.
I underrstand the process you have provided and it is an elegant approach.
My problem seems to boil down to the "Edit Series" box from the "Select Data"
window. In your example, your "Edit Series" box contains "Series Name",
"Series X Value" and "Series Y Value". The box I bring up contains only "
Series Name" and "Series Value". where am I going wrong?
 
Dave B -

In Excel 2007, if you have an XY (Scatter) chart type, the Edit Series
dialog box will contain "Series name",
"Series X values" and "Series Y values".

If you have some other chart type, e.g., a Line chart type, the Edit Series
dialog box will contain "Series name" and "Series values."

Your original post said you had an XY chart. Maybe you don't.

wrong chart type. Thanks to all for your help.
