Author 3d graphs

I know that this has been brought up before, but I'm trying to get into
making really cool 3d graphs/charts. I'm on Illy 10 and have searched
in this forum before, but it's kinda skimpy on the info.
Anyone A) have a tutorial on bringing a chart from excel to illy? B)
any plugins available that would facilitate that function?

Thx

I made many graphs in my life, all in Illustrator, but not the last few
years. I know Illustrator develops but I do not believe you can expect
Illustrator to convert an Excel graph into vector......

You can however import Excel data that made the graph into Illustrator
to generate that graph there. After that it is using 3D functions
(plugin or not) and your own design crafts to make really cool graphs.
