Scoreboard of sorts?  PowerPoint and Excel

I have the dual monitor option set up and working great. However, when I go to make a chart in PowerPoint, it automatically opens Excel to make my data.



I need the presentation to be updated in real-time, while it is on a loop playing about 6 slides.

Can this even be done?

Alright, setting up the charts in PowerPoint has proven to be semi-successful. For some reason it doesn't always update an "in progress" slideshow. The data has to be changed a couple of times in order for PowerPoint to recognize what is going on.

I need this to be flawless. I have people who are waiting in the wings on a scoreboard, and if it doesn't update immediately without problems, they walk away.

I also need to enter the numbers from a remote computer that is tied into the same network.
