Default How can I create multiple charts using variable data?

Can you put name and salary into two columns, and use a value in a cell to
indicate which employee in the list to display? Say the data is in A1:B100,
and the indicator cell is C1. In D1 enter this formula

=index(A1:A100,$C1)

and copy this cell onto E1. You can change what's in D1:E1 by changing cell
C1. Write a macro to change C1 from 1 to N, each time the formulas update,
then the chart updates, so the macro can spit out each chart (print or copy
picture - paste).

I have a series of formulas that generate pie charts for all my employees.
To
manually generate a chart, I have to input the salary and name of each
employee.
Is there a way to automate this process as only two values are changing
for
each generated chart?
I'm using Excel 2003 for this task.
