I agree with Gerhard; we do several projects that require this, and DDE is the easiest way.

If you cannot do DDE, then you can produce a static file with data, and then write a short VBA macro in Excel to create the graph from the data you produce. This shouldn't be difficult even if you don't know VBA, as you can just record a macro from creating the graph the first time, and then reuse that macro.
