Well I wouldn't go so far as to say "..obviously.." but there's a
distinct possibility that it's not the best option available.

Yes, you could.

You can, but you don't *have* to.  If you work in the spreadsheet, and
save all changes, the next time you open the Writer document, you'll be
warned that it contains links to data from external sources, and asks if
you want that data updated to reflect any changes that have occurred.

Obviously, you'd answer "Yes".   :-)

Also note that Brian & M.A. offer alternatives using just Calc that may
suit your needs as well, or better, than my suggestion.
