How can I modify an Excel chart once I've created it?

Once you've created an Excel chart, the four steps of the Chart Wizard can be accessed from the Chart Menu (the chart menu only appears when you select the chart, if teh chart isn't selected, you will see the Data menu instead).

The first four options under the Chart menu are the four steps - Chart Type, Source Data, Chart Options and Location. Any of these can be edited at any time.
