I have a workbook which contains many copied sheets from other workbooks.
I
have editted all of the formula so that they link only to sheets within
the
workbook and not to external worksheets. However, every time I load the
file
I get XL telling me that 'I have links to other workbooks, would I like to
update them?' This isn't really a problem, I just click no and get on with
it. The annoying thing is that I cannot find an external reference
anywhere
on any of the sheets.

I have tried CTRL+F for #REF, [ and ], and .xls, all the things you'd
expect
to find in an external link. I've also checked all the source data on my
charts for external references and not found any. For my own sanity and
peace
of mind, can anyone suggest a way to quickly find an external reference???

Many thanks.
