What is the best way to print a chart. In Excel 2003 you just selected the chart and then file/print. In Excel 2008 this now prints the chart and all it's source data. If I switch to page layout view it clobbers freeze panes in the source sheet. It used to be so easy...

Did you ever get a response? I need to print a chart but can't. 2003 was easy, but 2008 I just can't figure out how to print JUST the chart. I've resorted to taking a screen snapshot, but there has got to be a better way!

Yeah, it's a bit of an inconvenience, but no that tough :-)

Select the range of cells occupied by he chart, then in the Print dialog
choose Selection under Print What.

I tried that approach, but it only prints the selected cells. The goal is to
print the chart, not the cells (the way it used to work). Any thoughts?

Are you clicking the "Selection" option under Print What: in the Print
dialog? Works here - to paper or to PDF.
