I am using Excel 2007, however I'm not a frequent user. I created a
workbook
with a separate worksheet for each quarter of the year for the last few
years. The layout of each worksheet is the same.

I can successfully create a graph from a single worksheet using a range of
data on that sheet. My problem lies in creating a graph using data across
multiple worksheets. Let's say that I click on a new worksheet and insert
an
empty line chart. I then right click on the chart and select the option
to
select data. I enter a series name and then attempt to select the data.
I
click on the first worksheet and click on cell A5 for example. I then
hold
the shift key and click on the last worksheet containing valid data in the
A5
cell. I go to save formula and it throws an error saying that the formula
has an error.

What am I doing wrong? Is Excel supposed to be able to graph data from
the
same cell across multiple worksheets?
