Well, I used to use a table but that was ***way*** worse in Open Office
(pre-LibreOffice). Professional or unprofessional. It gets my invoices out.
Sure, I could write a program to do it. In fact, I have written programs
that do it. But this is what I use for this client, because they want a
Word document. The structure of ODF, is so bizarre, that I don't have the
time to devote to design a program to build an ODF compliant document. So,
this is what I use. Because the client is always right. That is the first
rule of being professional. I build it in Libreoffice and export it to Word.

LibreOffice, should be able to handle a linked field properly. I don't see
how the automatic linking can work at all. I can't link from within a
document and I can't link from another document. Looks like a bug. Maybe
it's a feature. The automatic linking that doesn't link.
