Default how do i reference cells to create a chart?

I am compating data over many months in a spreadsheet with a tab for each
month. While the data changes from month to month, the format is consistent,
mostly for calculation purposes. I would also like to be able to use this to
create charts that can be transferred from one sheet to the next. Any help
would be much appreciated.

Nick -

The easiest way is to make a chart on one sheet, then copy this sheet (with the
embedded chart). Copy the data for another month, and use Paste Special - Values
from the Edit menu to copy the data onto the corresponding cells of the copied
sheet. The copied chart will update with the copied data.
