I really need to import graphs and tables from Excel spreadsheet. But as I understand I can not do this in any way in Designer ES2? Thank you ahead.

Well,

importing charts is only able a static images or by embedding flash fields (only usable in Reader/Acrobat X or above).

A Flash Chart example can be found in Niall's blog:

You also can create charts yourself within you XFA forms.

I have designed a couple of FormCalc-based charts, that can be rendered dynamically at runtime in Adobe Reader/Acrobat and will also work in older versions of Adobe Reader/Acrobat.

You can use this samples for your own use.

But remember, that these solutions needs to be customized to work for your purposes.
