the workaround is to copy to the new file not the sheet's content but the sheet 
itself. to do it please right-click the sheet's tab in the bottom of the calc's 
window, open the 'move/copy sheet' window from the context menu and choose what 
is needed from the 'to document' list. the sheet will be copied in full with 
all graphs linked to the appropriate data ranges. you could then delete all the 
old data from the sheet's cells, leaving the graphs alone, and fill in the new 
content.

you should also note that i failed to reproduce the bug in the latest version 
of open office, 3.4.1, although i could recollect experiencing it myself in the 
past. so, it may have bin fixed by the developers since then. if your office is 
not the most up-to-date, then you could probably get your problem fixed by just 
upgrading.
