Embedding A Spreadsheet Into WORD Question, Please

Hello:

New at this.

Have created a normal "stand-alone" Excel spreadsheet, but would now like to
embed it into a WORD document.

Is there any way to embed an Excel spreadsheet into a WORD text document,
and yet have it possible to update the spreadsheet from within this WORD
document ?

If so, how please ?

Much thanks,
Bob

My understanding is this:
Open both the Word document and the Excel spreadsheet. In
the Excel spreadsheet, select the cells and then click on
Copy. Switch to the Word document and place your cursor
in the position you wish the table to show. Click on the
Edit menu, select Paste Special... Click Paste Link, and
select Microsoft Excel... and then OK.
This will allow you to update the numbers from either
Word or from Excel.

REMEDIAL WITH WORD

But I'm good with Excel, and embedding excel into a word doc is one of my favorite tricks. Open the word doc where you want the spreadsheet to appear, on the tool bar click insert, select Excel worksheet from the list and insert the BLANK SHEET. Then open your existing spreadsheet, click on the intersection of the x and y access (extreme upper left corner), click copy, go to word doc, double click in spreadsheet, go to extreme upper left corner, click on that square and then PASTE. That should take ALL of your data from the existing spreadsheet and put it into word.

This seems to create quite a load on word......I'd save often if I were you........ my version of word often stops responding when I get crazy with the spreadsheet calcs, etc.
