Default To paste link or to =cell ref??

Im Afraid I can't as i don't use the paste link. But When if you "=Cell Ref"
belongs to another worksheet of file that your formula belongs to, then this
will automatically create a link between the two.

Thanks that does help. Are you able to explain the difference between the two

There is not relly a quick way in using the "= cell ref". But if you do use
the "=Cell Ref" method, whn you copy this to another cell, the cell ref
changes in repect to its placing. This may help you, by copying the "=Cell
Ref" to the other cells, and by using the $ either in front of the Column
Number / Row Number / Or both will determine on how the cell ref changes when
being copied to another cell.

Hope This Helps

Please could someone explain to me the difference between using the paste
link function & the €œ= cell ref€ function to link cells between workbooks. (I
find link paste useful as I can link large numbers of cells at one time where
as I have to use the €œ=€ method for each cell. Maybe there is a way to do
large numbers of cells with the €œ=€ method?)
Thanks
