Orientate data labels in pivot charts

[Nicola]

Hi Everyone,



I have created pivot chart forms in my database, and added data labels to each series. However the data labels often display on top of each other if two series have a similar value. One thing that would help solve this is if I could orientate the data label for the column chart vertically so it could display within it's columns. I have gone to the properties tab of the data label in question, and there is an option to orientate, but mine is greyed out. Can anyone help?

I am getting the same behavior, that option is greyed out on every chart type. No idea why it's there if it can't even be used. I don't use pivot chart/table (MS has removed them from Access 2013).

sigh. I guess I'm just going to have to live with it then.
