Default Bug: Move or Copy sheet graph links not updating!

This is very frustrating! I spent a week preparing a worksheet with a lot of
graphs on the same single sheet. I need to do the same for 20 different
departments. In previous versions of Excel (e.g. 2003) I just could copy the
prepared worksheet via 'Move of Copy' (rightclick on the tab) and all would
be fine. In Excel 2007 however, all graphs still link to data ranges on the
original sheet.

Example:
Sheet called "Total" with a graph with data series ='Total'!$E$15:$E$36.
Copy sheet to a new tab called "Dep1". In Excel 2003 the data series would
automatically be changed to ='Dep1'!$E$15:$E$36. In 2007 however, it is still
='Total'!$E$15:$E$36.

Please please please, is there any solution besides manually changing
hunderds of data series? Starting again in Excel 2003 is no option either.
