    Combine Formula and static Text

    Hi Group,

    Using Excel 2003, in excel chart, I have changed the chart title to generate
    the name based on a cell text. But, all I want is to append text to the
    generated name.

    My sample formula for chart name looks like
    ='MySheet'!$B$1.
    But if I change to
    ='MySheet'!$B$1 & "Hello Text" and also,
    ='MySheet'!$B$1 & TEXT("Hello Text")
    does not seem to work.


    I am happy to find forum that will ease my job.

    Best Regards

    It is not possible to concatenate a chart title referring to a cell and a
    text string,
    you can use a macro that will do it or referring to a second cell where you
    use the contents of one cell
    (B1) and the string
