Default Inserting charts into many workbooks

Hi,
I'm using Excel 2007 and am pretty new to VBA. I have a folder with 40
or so workbooks- all with the same worksheet table format. The worksheets
are huge (20 000 + rows, 50 or so columns). I need to open a workbook, make
several fully formatted graphs, then insert the same graphs into every
workbook , updated them with that workbooks' data.

Any ideas on code for this?

Default Inserting charts into many workbooks

This isn't fully automated, but it will save some time. In one workbook,
create the chart and format it to your specs. Then paste the chart into
another workbook, and use the utility linked to in the following
tutorial to change the series formulas, using the old and new workbook
and sheet names of the host workbooks.

If the sheets are identically named, you only need to search for the
workbook name enclosed in square brackets, and replace it with nothing.
