    How do I use a named range as my chart title?

    I have a range name that changes and I want to apply this name to the Title above my chart. I would like to use a formula like: =Region?
    Thanks in advance

    Did you try to add quotes around the named range
    ie.
    ="Region"

    You need to add this to the "formula" bar after you click on the title area
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    I inserted a text box, clicked inside the chart to create an empty text box. I then typed the equal sign in the formula bar and clicked the cell that contained the named range. This works.
