How do I link a folder to a cell in an Excel spreadsheet
I think the problem is the same as a problem i had. Excel tries to "UPDATE"
the links when you save a file and "corrupts" the link. To fix this you can turn auto link updating off. DATAOPTIONSGENERAL click on web options button. Under the tab named FILES deselect "update links on save". This worked well for me but I wish microsoft would fix the problem.
