Default Using a chart like a formula...?

Hey,

I want to track the progress of certain "students". I have their results
from tests that they sit in a register-style worksheet. (Names are in column
A, and scores are under appropriate heading in row 1.)

If I was to create a formula to say add SCORE ONE + SCORE TWO + SCORE
THREE... I would create a formula that looked like;

=SUM(B2:B26). I would then want that to appear in each row, so I would use
the tiny square in the bottom right hand corner and it would copy down the
formula using dynamic cell references that were corresponding.

All fairly simple stuff.

I would like to make ONE GRAPH. This would simply plot their score against
the name of a test in a line graph. This is simple enough to do for ONE
student, but I can't find a way of using the equivilent to the tiny little
square to make ONE for each student. (The numbers of students can become
quite high.)

I have seen something (I'm pretty sure it was in excel) where as the tutor
moved their cursor over the students name a graph would appear as if it was a
comment. (I hope you know whatI mean by this).

The tutor could move their mouse down the list and each time they stopped
excel would create a graph for them using the particular student's data,
based on a "template" (eg. Line graph.)

Does anyone have any idea how this was done.
If you've got any ideas, I would really appreciate some help.

Dan
