In Excel 2007, how do you make it automatically combine values under 2% for a pie chart?

I'm working on some pie charts that draw from 100+ lines of data, most under 2% of the total. How do I make Excel combine those small amounts into one "other" category. I'm pretty sure I could do this in Excel 03, but can't find the feature in the new version.

Excel offers the option to explode those small data slices into another chart element, but I don't want to explode it. I'm okay with just putting it into one slice on its own without showing additional detail.

Try adding a fixed minimum value for your chart. Details in the attached link.
