It's worked for me and several other posters.

I'd say double check your work and try it again.

11 is for xl2003.

hi thanks for your reply - unfortunately I tried the solution - it didnt
work. Firstly I did not have the directory 9 as mentioned in the post
solution, BUT i did have a 11 and 10 in the same location so I added the
DWORD to both these directories under options but to no avail.

Any other ideas?

thanks

I have a number of excel sheets with links and everytime I open them it

without prompt and then saved it but when I open the file again it asks
to
update the links.

It is really annoying can anyone shed any light on this.
