Default how do I break links to external workbooks en masse?

I'm not sure if this registry tweak will work in xl2007--make a note of anything
you changed/added so you can change it back if it fails...

Jim Rech posted a registry tweak:

Each recipient will have to make this change.

If it doesn't work, ask the sender to break the links before he/she sends you
the file.

Ciao Marcelo - This feature does not work with Excel 2007. I have a
spreadsheet provided by a customer sent via email. This worksheet has
numerous links that point to a file that is not on our environment or will
ever be for that matter.

When I open this worksheet, cells with broken formulas that have bad links
all show "VALUE#!", if I break the links using MS's method, all cells have
the word "VALUE#" not the actual value.

Any clue how to get around this?

Thanks
Darrell
