    Question Pulling Data For Legend Entries

    Hello everyone,

    I have attached two pictures of sheets:
    1. RAW DATA SHEET
    2. TOTAL TOTAL SHEET

    The chart on TOTAL TOTAL SHEET plots BR3:BR10 from RAW DATA SHEET (as an example).

    Is there any way to then have the legend (on the right) for the chart (in this case "OFSV 3") to include the data from cell BR15 on the RAW DATA SHEET?

    Thanks in advance for the help!

    I am not certain I understand what you want.

    You can set the "series name" field (see select data dialog) to point to any cell in the sheet that you want. If you want the value 34.7... to be the series name, you should be able to easily use BR15 as the series name.

    If you want to concatenate OFSV 3 and 34.7... to be the series name ("OFSV 3 34.7..."), put your desired concatenation function into a suitable helper cell [maybe =CONCATENATE("OFSV 3 ",BR15)], then reference that helper cell as the series name.

    Am I understanding what you want, or is there something about your question that I am missing?
