I am running Excel 2002 and Windows XP server on a network
PC. When I generate a scatter plot and attempt to re-
format the axis titles, the active text boxes exclude the
right-most string of text. In other words, it appears
that the text box resizing is failing. Any suggestions?
I have been doing this for years on previous versions of
EXCEL and Windows and have not problems on my home machine
with EXCEL 2002 and Windows XP home.

Thanks

You could try adding a couple of spaces and a period to the end of the
title. To prevent the period from appearing on machines without the
problem, format the period with white font, to hide it.

Interestingly, it only appears to happen on the vertical
axis title. The horizonatal title seems to function
normally.
