Using your latest advice (above) I was able to get 4 of 5 graphs
transferred. The 5th graph copied over with the sheet, but when -in the
new spreadsheet- I recopied it to the correct sheet, it still popped
into "data table" form. In all 5 cases the data ranges and the graphs
are on the same sheet.
copying between the sheets of the same document can be acomplished through
the following ritual:
1. rename the source sheet to Sheet1,
2. create a temporary document containing a sheet named Sheet1,
3. copy the graph between these sheets (in fact, you can copy to any other
tempdoc's sheet on this step, Sheet1's bare existence within the tempdoc
is quite sufficient),
4. restore the source sheet's name to its original state,
5. rename the destination sheet to Sheet1,
6. copy the graph to this Sheet1 from the tempdoc's Sheet1,
7. rename the destination back to what it used to be previously.
you see, the clue is to always copy between the sheets named 'Sheet1'. i
realise it's ridiculous, but it works. as it has already been mentioned,
copying graphs is a bug common throughout all spreadsheet editors.
