Default Chart not updating with changes in source data

I have a chart which has 4 columns of source data (150 rows each) on another
worksheet. Users can manipulate the values in the source data by selecting an
option in a combo box which is linked to a cell on the same sheet as the
source data. Calculation is set to Automatic, and the source data updates
fine. However, the chart does not update with changes to the source data.
I've tried using F9, Ctrl + Alt + F9, Ctrl + Shift + Alt + F9 etc., but the
only way to get the chart up to date at this point is either to delete the
graph and recreate it, or to save the workbook, close and reopen it. Both of
these methods work but are obviously far from ideal.

I have noticed that the statusbar has Calculate on it, which I seem to
recall indicates that some things in the workbook have not calculated
completely. I have tried putting Application.Calculate and
Application.CalculateFullRebuild in the combo box's change event but this
does nothing to resolve the situation.

Any ideas?
TIA for any suggestions
