Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
Breaking the link to the Excel file before sending the Word document ensures that the client does not receive the Excel file along with the Word document. This is the best choice to maintain data confidentiality and prevent the client from accessing unnecessary files. Deleting or editing the data in the Excel file may not be feasible or appropriate, and refreshing the data in the Excel object may not affect the link to the file.
