I have added a text box to my chart. Now when I try to print all that
prints is the text box not the graph. I can get the graph to print IF I
print it on the chart window but it does not include the text box then.
I want my chart and text box to print when I use page set up because I
have a table beneath the chart which is not the data table. I need all
three elements to print on one page.

Hi Lori,
Perhaps it is because your chart and text box are not linked.
Click on text box (note circular fill handles); hold sh.t and click on chart
(again circular fill handles)
Right click on chart; select Group

When you make a text box (or a drawing object on a chart) next time: click
on chart BEFORE you make the text box; this will group the two objects.

Best wishes
Bernard
