When a chart is created it usually has a series of boxes that encompass the
data contained in the chart much like it does with a SUM function. If these
boxes disappear, how can I get them back?

Hi Brian,

Pivot charts don't highlght the range when a series is selected.

But for most other chart to see the highlight you must have the series
selected on the chart keeping in mind Jon's points.

Shane -

You can see the entire source data range, if it's not "too complex" to show
in the dialog. The plot area or chart area must be selected to show this
entire range.
