    Post making an auto self updating chart

    Hi,
    I am looking for a solution and did not find it yet.
    I want to make an excel workbook as follows:

    every week, I import a sheet that has the same pre built structure, but different data.
    Basically, each sheet is a snapshot/status report of a product's market for that specific moment.

    What I want to do, is to create another sheet with a chart/graph that is showing the progress from week 1 to the next week and so on, and each time I add a new snapshot sheet, it(the chart/graph) will automatically update.
    I want to do this in order to track the changes in the market.

    any ideas any body?

    Hi, welcome to the forum.
    Check the graph you already have and see the data range.
    define a variable for the range
    When you read a new 'snapshot, define the range and pass that as new range to the graph
    It sounds easy but you will to do some programming.
    You could create your first graph while recording a macro and see that it all does and only the data section needs the variable.
    Hope I'm making some sense

    I suggest to add the graph you want in your attached file makes it easier to show you.
    So please, create a graph as you want it and re attach the file

    Thank you Keebellah,
    I attached an example.
    Lets say I would like to track the reviews generation rate of each product.
