Integrate software applications into a word processing document.

Integration could involve linking a word-processed document to a database, graphic, or spreadsheet, so that when the source file (e.g., the database, graphic, or spreadsheet) is updated, the data in the word-processed document is updated as well. Examples could include integrating

  • a database of addresses to be used to create a form letter or mailing labels
  • a graphic to be used as an illustration
  • a spreadsheet file with a graph to be used as supporting information.
