Inserting application objects (e.g., Excel tables) into UR editor

[$bill]

I have used this similar method-

Create a text item.
Open the Document (CTL+J) > it opens in Word externally.
Insert an Excel sheet into the Word doc (Insert Table)
save and 'Click here to resume internal editing"

However, I believe if I edited within UR, the Excel interface lacked the File Save function. CTL+S didn't work either. I had to reopen the document externally to save the edits.
I didn't do this often enough to discover if the Options|Document Editing would affect it.
