Excel is not a relational database, and does not provide referential
integrity. Access has no way to control what a user puts into Excel.

Filtering should work; you can treat a linked spreadsheet as a table,
join a field in the spreadsheet to a field in a table, use criteria on
fields in the linked table, etc. I'm not sure if these are the
"filtering matters" you're asking about.
