Default how do i update a chart area automatically

Hello,

I have an offset formula I use to update a chart plotted by columns. I name
the ranges and change the range areas to the offset formula...something like
this =Offset(Sheet1! $A$2,0,0,CountA(Sheet1! $A:A)-1). Basically, makes all
the rows available for charting minus the row with the label. I use this
same technique for two columns...Column A acts as the Category x axis and
Column B as the value axis. Works beautifully

Now, I would like to come up with a way to plot by rows. My values would
grow as new field names would be added across the columns...specifically,
Jan, Feb, March and then have April, May and June added to the plot area
automatically.

C138:C147 would have the names of sales reps and D137:F137 would hold the
Month labels and then D138: F147 would list the values. So the list of sales
reps is static, but new data comes in for each month and needs to be added to
the charts. I have many of these charts on a dash board and do not want to
update all of them every month. Any suggestions would be appreciated
alathough I want to use VBA as a last resort.

Thanks!
