Cannot combine stock charts with other chart types in Excel 2007

I just noticed that Excel 2007 60-day trial version totally corrupted my
Excel 2003 chart that combines a stock chart with line charts and X-Y charts.
Then when I try to create such combined chart from scratch, I get a message
saying "Some charts cannot be combined with other charts"!

My department does a lot of statistical analysis, and we've been overlaying
other chart types on top of stock charts since Excel 2000. Is there a way to
do this in Excel 2007 or will MS add this feature as a service pack?

For an example of the combined chart, see this website:

I haven't tried this extensive type of chart yet, but I do know already that
XY charts don't use line chart category axes the same way in 2007 as in
prior versions. Maybe I should try it out and see how badly it goes. I'm
trying to stay away from 2007 if I want to make any complicated charts come
out right.
