Builder EX: How to paste current Matlab figure in Excel worksheet?

Hi,

I am using Matlab 2013b with Builder EX. With this toolbox, I created a Matlab application which I call from within Excel / VBA. This Matlab application also creates a figure, and everything works fine.

Now, I would like to be able to paste the generated Matlab figure into an Excel cell. From what I undersatnd, there are 2 general options:

1. I know there are several ways to have Matlab place the figure to the worksheet. But for several reasons, I would like to do this in VBA!
2. As far as I know, I could fetch the current figure with MLGetFigure using the 'Spreadsheet Link EX' toolbox. But this is no option since I want to deploy my application to computers that do not run Matlab.

Any suggestions?

Thank you very much!
