    Hovering cursor over columns doesn't give values

    Using Excel 2007 on WinXP. On several of my charts, selecting the chart and then hovering the cursor over columns does not display the values. This is especially true of columns on the far right of chart area of low values (toward bottom of chart area). See attached, "Devices" chart bars for G or Utilized bar for A. Same thing in the other two charts. Values for bars with higher values are displayed. Any suggestions?

    All display fine for me. Check Tools/Options/Advanced/Chart and make sure that the Show data point values on hover box is checked.

    The Advanced Options was the first thing I checked and it is checked. That is why I am able to see some of the values, but not the far right data bars or low value bars.

    I've tried to replicate this but no matter what I try I am always able to get the relevant Series' details by hovering in the correct location (although for the smaller columns this location is quite sensitive to the slightest movement). Sorry I can't help.

    XOR LX - Looked at the graphs on another computer and the series details show up fine. Apparently it is a "problem" on my primary machine. Thanks for looking and responding.
