Hi,
I have a problem, I have a workbook with 30 sheets, I have a carryover
sheet which has a persons name in the cell. I was hoping that if you
changed that persons name on the carryover sheet it would update all
30 sheets where the name is placed. It wont update, any ideas what
could be wrong I am using Excell 2003.

I had copied the cell from the carryover sheet and pasted the link
into each of the 30 sheets.

this is what is paste linked into all 30 sheets =CarryOver!$H$17

I have absolutely no idea what I have doen wrong !!!!

Ok I found it in the archives,lot of reading to find it, so If any one
else has the same problem with internal links not updating in the
workbook

CTRL-ALT-F9
will fix the problem

From reading excel's auto recalculation just seems to go to sleep and
needs a wakeup.......- Hide quoted text -

- Show quoted text -

Joel I have tried that and it is set to auto and I have pressed F9, it
dont work the only way to get the links updating again was the CTRL -
ALT-F9 trick and now the links are all working again.... funny thing
isn't it.....
