Default Converting PowerPoint

Currently we develop our PowerPoint slides for presentations by creating graphs / PIE Charts in Excel and exporting to PowerPoint as an image. All of our reports allow you to save in Excel or PDF so conversion to PowerPoint is a challenge. I woud like to know if we could use Excel as a mechanism to update slides based on the data that you enter on the Excel Spreadsheet. In other words, the Excel spreadsheet would update a PowerPoint slide automatically as soon as you add information much the same way as when you link sheets on a Excel spreadsheet. My thought is to create one Excel spreadsheet per PowerPoint slide... Is this possible?
Thanks
Ed
