    Linking Chart Titles to a Cell

    I must be doing something dumb. The text I want for my chart title is in cell B164. So I click on the chart title so I can edit it. I try typing in "B164" - I get a chart tile that says "B164", not the contents of cell B164. I try typing in "=B164" - I get a chart tile that says "=B164"...
