Scatter Chart with Named Data Labels

[charlieowen]

I want to make an x-y scatter chart with named labels on each point.

My data table looks like:
Person Speed Quality
Sue: 4, 7
Joe: 3, 9
Sam: 7, 3
Jane: 5, 5

I want a chart with Speed on the X axis, Quality on the Y axis, a mark at each x-y point, and a data label of the name beside the point.

My actual data has 14+ items whith x-y values which will change as I update the data. If I manually label the data points, I have to manually move the labels each time the data changes.

The only solution I have found is to make 14 separate series with one x-y point each. This method is tedious.

Take a look at Rob Bovey's XY Scatter Labeler (item 20) at http://www.xl-logic.com/pages/charts.html.
