I agree with you Bill, it is a odd thing, but it works perfectly for what i
am trying to do.
It almost seems as if excel is bringing in the other sheet as a graphic -
but i can not control the size(resolution i guess) of the inserted sheet.

Maybe there is another way to monitor several worksheets from one point? I
am not stuck on using excel for this but it seems the easiest method - if
anyone can suggest any other way to monitor mulitple sheets in mulitple
folders... :)

Cheers!

Inserting one workbook into another as a linked object is an unusual
thing to do. If you double-click it, it will open up the source
workbook, I assume. If you want to see certain cells in the source
workbook it would be more usual to create a formula link to the
specific cells.
