I would like to show the label name, value and percentage on my pie chart, but I can only use either label name and percentage or value. Is there any way around this?
 

Excel Facts

Square and cube roots
The =SQRT(25) is a square root. For a cube root, use =125^(1/3). For a fourth root, use =625^(1/4).

If you have your data in columns, set up another column that concatenates the label
and value. If A1:A3 have the labels and B1:B3 have the values, make the formula
in C1=A1&CHAR(13)&B1 , etc. (CHAR(13) adds a carriage return: it will look right in the
chart.)

Now, right-click in the chart and select Source Data. Change the category labels
from the default to the new labels you have created (here, C1:C3). Also, make sure that
Chart Options shows "label and percent."

That should do it.
