Unfortunately, Excel 2003 worked just fine, but later versions seem not to like this technique very much.
I lack time to try and figure out what is wrong though, sorry!!

xStart=-4
xEnd = 4
xNoOfPoints=99
Formula=(sqrt(cos(x))*cos(500*x)+sqrt(abs(x))-0.4)*(4-x*x)^0.1

Enter sin(x) in cell B1
Enter 0 in b3
Enter 6.28 in B4
Enter 2000 in B5

The download file works just fine in Excel 2016, so I figure something else must be wrong with your attempt to replicate.

1. The scope of each and every named range MUST be the sheet that the chart is on.
2. Each and every formula that references the named range, MUST include the sheet name eg. Sheet1!Formula
3. The suggestion to add +0*Sheet1!x to the EVALUATE function will allow the workbook to open without producing an error message about one or more names not being correct.
4. If the formula to chart starts with a negative the addition of ' at the beginning will prevent Excel from trying to turn the entry into a formula for cell B1 eg. '-2*x^2+1
