[QUOTE="Jeff Donkersgoed, post: 6438349"] I've found the problem. There seems to be an Excel bug when saving a chart with the zoom on and a textbox inserted. It can be easily reproduced in Excel 2007 (not sure if this is specific to 2003 compatability mode or if it happens in native 2003 as well). This is not an issue saving as .xlsx. 1. Create a couple rows of data and create a bar chart (I used a 2D stacked bar). 2. From Chart Tools-->Layout, insert a Text Box in the chart. 3. Set View-->Zoom to 50%. 4. Save as 2003 document and close. 5. Open the document You will see that the while the chart box is the same size, the contents inside have shrunk. 6. Save, close and open repeatedly and the contents keep shrinking away. If step 2 is omitted, there is no problem. The issue is with the text box combined with the zoom. [/QUOTE]
