    Will a 'Table' work for you? Just add a new month and the INs/OUTs & the chart follows...

    No code. Are you familiar with 'Tables'? You can pull your source data into the table with formulas and it will automatically update the chart.


    Yes, you can change to a column chart, just activate the chart, right click just inside the chart border, select 'Change Chart Type' and select the first column chart (top left) in the series.

    Here's some info on how to create a table.

    http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/ex...010013764.aspx

    Once you have the table set up, create a chart referencing the Table's data. Any changes (adds/deletes,etc.) in the Table's data will be reflected 'dynamically' in the chart.
