    Charts lose formatting when reopened

    I have a file with many charts that are all the same format but pulling different information. I have organized so that 6 charts print on one page. My problem is that whenever I reopen the file, the charts tend to lose their formatting that existed when I previously saved and exited. For example, I added a text box to each one to act like a legend. In most charts, this tex box disappears. Also, the plot areas all get "scrunted" because the X-axis moves to the center of the chart area instead of staying near the bottom.

    Any ideas why this happens? I prefer not to have to reformat these each time I open the file.

    Thanks
