Yes, we already tried that. I actually used the formula auditing feature to
make sure that it knew where we wanted the info pulled from.

The first thing I'd do is look at the formula and see where that link points.
Then make sure that there's a file in that location--and make sure that the
workbook has a worksheet (that's referred to in the formula).

Hello. I am having the same issue that Hoochi Coochi Man inquired about on
1/12/05 (see below). However, the solution provided by Dave Peterson did not
work on my spreadsheet. Instead excel kept asking (for each linked cell) to
browse to the source document file location. Then it replaced the cell value
to 0. We have the same format set up, that was/is working, to track our 2006
information and now we are trying to convert the 2006 document for the 2007
year and it is causing a problem. Any suggestions would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks for your help.

Thanks for the info.

Now google knows that it's working for you (at least for awhile!).

Hi Dave

Yes, it did work so many thanks for the tip. I found that Ctl Alt F9 also
worked but only forced a recalc then the sheets 'frooze' again. Your solution
seems to be holding up so far.
Cheers

maybe, just maybe, if you do:

Edit|replace
what: = (equal sign)
with: = (equal sign)
replace all

it'll wake excel up and your calculations will be ok again.

Post back with your results. This seems to be an infrequent problem, but it
would nice to know if that suggestion works.

Hi
My very large workbook has developed a strange problem that cell references
from one sheet to another have stopped updating. e.g. if data is entered on
one sheet it will not update linked cells in other sheets. Stragely, if I
recreate the link - which is precisely the same- it works once but then
becomes 'frozen' and will not update if the data is changed.
Would be grateful if someone could help me remove this critical spanner from
my works.
Thanks
Keith
