Has anyone ever implemented a data logging routine accessible to Excel?

The application is for a flight recorder to store data on a memory card or USB stick, in such a way as to allow import into Microsoft Excel as comma seperated variables (*.CSV) or similar. Collecting around 1200 bytes a second into a USB stick makes a very useful performance analyser and de-bugger.

I think the hardest part is formatting the card in such a way as to make it PC compatible.

Is there any usefull research material you could point me too.
