Default How can I have multiple fonts in a legend?

Thanks Andy. I had tried to insert a texbox for part of the legend, which
resulted in the text not lining up exactly. Instead I just covered over all
the original legend with one text box and it worked fine. Thanks for you
help!

Hi,

The font for the legend can not be formatted for specific entries or
parts of an entry. Textboxes or data labels with the legend key
displayed are the normal work around for fancy legends.

Can you explain further the 'line up' problem you have with text boxes?

Cheers
Andy

source code it is correct, but in the chart it is all in arial. I tried
