    How to create a chart based on a 2 dim data range dynamical in 1 d

    How can I create a chart based on a 2 dimensional range of data, which is
    dynamical in one direction?

    Problem: set of data in rows.
    A named (dynamic) label range: wk2005=offset($E$2,0,0,1,counta($2:$2)-2).
    Named value range: Data=offset(wk2005,22,0,5,counta(wk2005)).

    Series 1 of chart should have the values of row 22.
    Series 2 should have the values of row 23 etc. through to series 5.
    The name of the 1st series is placed 3 columns to the left of the first data
    point (E24).
    The name of the 2nd series is placed 3 columns to the left of the second
    data point (E25) etc.
    The x-labels is simple: wk2005.

    I try to use the offset function in the source data values box of the
    chart but I cannot get it to work.

    Please advise.

    One cannot use OFFSET in the Source Data dialog box of the Chart. =20
    However, create the named formulas first. Then, use the names in the=20
    chart. For more see
