Default Create a chart from a table

In Word 2003, I could select a table, then insert - picture - chart and I
would get a chart based on the data that was in the table. (See
http://wordprocessing.about.com/od/f...tablechart.htm for
a demonstration of what I am referring to). In Word 2007, if I select a
table, then click Chart on the Insert tab of the ribbon, a chart and data
table appear, but the data is just some preset example data, not the
informatio from my table. Is the functionality from Word 2003 gone or am I
missing a step someplace?

If you first save your document in Word 97-2003 .doc format then it will work
as it did in earlier versions.
