Hello Frank.

Thank you. I should have mentioned in my original e-mail that I am not
interested in linking or consolidating - to much effort. My thinking is that
if you can select , say, 20 worksheeets within one workbook, make a change to
one cell, and have the change made to that cell in all of the remaining 19
worksheets, that you should be able to do the same with workbooks. I'm
convinced that the gurus at MS had to contemplate such a scenario, I just
can't seem to figure out how.

Hello MS Excel Community.

Here's the deal...I'm trying to find a way to update cells across
four
workbooks.

All of the workbooks are formatted exactly the same with the
exception of the
filenames. I want to be able to open all four workbooks, some how
highlight
the cell where I want to make the change, make the change once, and
have the
change reflect in all of the workbooks - similar to making changes on
multiple worksheets within one worbook. Any suggestions would be
welcome.
