Crystal Reports for VS 2010 Chart Legend/Labels

Real simple question that I can't seem to find an answer to guys. How to I change the labels associated with charts in the version of crystal for Visual Studio 2010? Or can I?

I always end up with the labels showing the field name from my data source or like @sum..

So my question is how do change these in the version of crystal I am using? Or am I going to have to wing it and color fill some boxes and use text objects?

VS2010 version :10.0.40219.1 SP1Rel Crystal:13.0.5.891

In Crystal Reports, run the report. In preview mode, do a right click on the chart itself, and then go to "Chart analyzer". This will take you into a designer mode of the chart. By selecting the axis title, you can open it up and modify the content.

I haven't done this in the .NET environment, but everything else I've done in the .NET Crystal Reports Designer has been the same.

Or, a bit of a hack, but you could alter the data source view/proc presumably to give alias's to your variables & fields?

I admit, not the ideal answer but it should work.
