Default How to display an object name in the Name Box in Excel 2007?

Hello:

In Excel 2003, if I select a series in a graph, the Name Box shows the name
of the series and the formula box shows the data range.

However, in Excel 2007, it does not show anything in the Name Box. Is there
an option to make it display? I scanned the Excel Options, but did not see
any. Perhaps I miss it?

Thanks,

Q

They forgot how useful that was. It was also visible in 2003 in the
Chart toolbar.

The selected chart element is visible in the top left control in the
last two chart tools ribbon tabs.
