Default Copying Charts While Changing Source Data

I am an accountant and I have around 500 different accounts that I'm trying
to keep a close eye on. What I would like to do is input the monthly data
that I would like to keep an eye on...data such as variance from budget,
variance from projection, etc. on one sheet and then put the charts on the
other sheet. That way in order to really analyze the data I can actually see
the trends. I can set up a chart and copy the chart...however, if all I do
is copy the chart and paste...both charts will point to the same source data.
When I copy and paste a chart I want the source data to be the data on the
next line. Going into each chart and changing the souce data for 500
accounts would take forever and a day. I've thought about creating a macro
(even though I'm not that great with macros) in order to accomplish this
feat...can anyone give me any suggestions????

Anyone's help will be greatly appreciated!!!!
