Project Plan reporting in excel

[Urgent question regarding LIST]

Hello,
I am trying to create a project reporting report in excel, should be easy
for my group to understand the report without any problems. I have searched
a lot all over but can't find any resource. Is there any templates that
explains clearly on how to establigh project plan in excel, I actually want
to show the gant chart view in excel instead of using MS project, since not
everyone uses MSP at work...
please help me with this request as this is urgent.

Thanks
Pooja
