Update links (repost)
the workbook containing the macro crashes if another excel workbook is
opened and being viewed this means that the active workbook is not the
workbook containing the call to update links
ActiveWorkbook.UpdateLink Name:=ActiveWorkbook.LinkSources
if the workbook containing the code is the active workbook no problem
