Hi,
I tried to add a button on a pivot table chart (like RETURN or GO BACK) but failed because the Excel wouldn't let me.
Is there any way we can make it doable?
Thanks and happy holidays.

Hi,

On any Chart Sheet, you cannot add a Control Toolbox Control. However, you can add a Forms Control, which has fewer control properties, but enough to do what you are looking for, I believe.

Skip,
I will try what you told me but now I found a second best way of handling it. I cut and pasted a chart to another sheet where I can easily set up buttons. I couldn't believe that the charts functioned well. I thought as I copied the charts, the data behind the charts would be gone but actually they were not.
Thanks.

You don't have to copy 'n' paste charts.

Just access the Chart/Location property.
