Importing data from Excel that updates daily

Can anyone help me with importing data from Excel please? I have got data in Excel that updates daily and I want to find a way of loading it into EViews such that it refreshes to include the most recent observation automatically, rather than having to upload a new file each time just to get the extra day's worth of information. There must be a way of doing this but I just can't get to the bottom of it - can you tell me either how to do it or which is the relevant part of the manuals? Thanks.

You'll have to write a program that imports the data (using the import command) into your workfile. Then each day you can run that program.
