I have a scatter chart with dots that represents information in a spreadsheet. I would like to place my cursor on a particular dot and it would show the contents of a particular cell in the spreadsheet. In the example, I would like to place my cursor on a dot in the chart and the name of the bond (in column C) would appear. When I move my cursor away from the dot, the name would disappear. I do not want to add the names as permanent labels because the chart would become very cluttered with many dots.

Can this be done?

Thank you
