Remarks

Each DataLabel object represents a data label for a point or trendline. For a series without definable points (such as an area series), the DataLabels collection contains a single data label.

Example

Use the method to return the DataLabels collection. The following example sets the number format for data labels on series one on chart sheet one.

Visual Basic for Applications
With Charts(1).SeriesCollection(1) .HasDataLabels = True .DataLabels.NumberFormat = "##.##" End With

Use DataLabels(), where is the data-label index number, to return a single DataLabelobject. The following example sets the number format for the fifth data label in series one in embedded chart one on worksheet one.

Visual Basic for Applications
Worksheets(1).ChartObjects(1).Chart _ .SeriesCollection(1).DataLabels(5).NumberFormat = "0.000"
