    Labels on X,Y plots

    Dear Excel Groovers,

    I have X, Y axis data in two columns, and each of these points also has a unique name, stored in a third column.

    Is there a way to use the labels feature to annotate each of my data points with its unique name, effectively on the plot (rather than say in a legend?)

    Right now, I can only label each point with its X or Y value, not the name I have for it.

    (I know I could have them all plotted as individual series and that would work, but I have probably too many points to make that a legitimate way round the problem).

    Many thanks if you can help...

    Matt, have a look at Rob Bovey's XY Chart Labeler add-in. You can download it here
