Default Chart: Use range name for source data

Shinya -

You need to preface the range name with the worksheet name.

=Sheet1!MyRange

If you use this on the Data Range tab, Excel converts it to the regular
address, so it's not truly dynamic. If you use it on the Series tab for
every series, the range names are remembered, and the chart adjusts as
the ranges change in size.
