data missing in charts original file 97-2003 opened 2007 and then.

[Choir10]

I have a file that is created in 97-2003, after it is opened in excel 2007
and then saved back to 97-2003 version when it is reopened the charts that
are included are not showing any of the text data or information that was
added to the charts. Anyone else have this problem or know how to fix it
other than manually updating the charts.

Did you add the information with XL2007? If so maybe you used components
that are available only in that version. Did you get a warning that saving
in the older format will lead to loss of information? If you don't remember
you may want to go through that exercise one more time.

Of course, it is also possible that XL failed to warn you that it would have
to remove certain information when saving in the older format. ;-)
