Default Automatic update of data in excel charts

How can I set up the excel chart to update as new data is added on a daily
basis?

I assume by added you mean appended to the existing data range.

i.e. Day one A1:A20

Day two A1:A35 etc.

Create Dynamic Ranges for your graph data sources.

These will expand/contract to fit the source ranges.

See Stephen Bullen's site to download a sample workbook that shows you how.

Scroll down to FunChrt1.zip and download the workbook.

Thanks Gord - the link clearly explains how to create dynamic ranges, and I
am able to automatically update my charts.

Good to hear.

Thanks for the feedback and thanks to Stephen.

He saved my butt with this many years ago when I was still working for a
living.
