Default Pivot Table Wizard Fails to Recognize New Rows of a Named Range

Excuse me if you've already have seen this post in another discussion group,
but someone suggested I post my Excel pivot table question here.

I've been following the same routine for years, but now Excel 2007 pivot
table no longer includes new rows of a named range (i.e., an Excel database)
AFTER I update the rows/columns included in the named range I use in the
pivot table wizard.

I've seen the other posts here with =OFFSET as a solution, but that's not
solution for me. Here's what I am writing about:

I add new rows to a database defined in Excel 2007 (columns = fields, rows =
records). I then update the named range I have used for years to include
these the new rows in. I then use the named range in the pivot table wizard.
The resulting pivot table fails to recognize the new rows of the database,
even though the named range I gave the pivot table includes the new rows.

I've been doing this monthly routine for many years with all versions of
Excel, and it has worked perfectly (i.e., the pivot table uses the new
definition of the ranged name). With Excel 2007, it no longer works (i.e.,
the pivot table ignores the new rows, even though the named range clearly
includes them).

What do I now have to do differently with Excel 2007 that none of the prior
Excel versions required me to do?

Thanks.
Ed
