Hi

I have exactly the same problem, I have links to an external workbook and
they are not updating. I have checked all the settings to enable external
links update with no luck but I noticed if I have the book that the links are
pointing to open the links works. I beleive this is started when we installed
the new Excel 2007.

I hope someone can find an answer tho this issue.

regards
Ed

Hi. I have a 7-workbook Excel spreadsheet, which contains links to several
other spreadsheets.

When I open the document, I click Yes to the "Do you want to update links?"
question, but the information in the linked cells is not updated. However,
if I click on the cell, then click at the end of the link in the formula bar
and press Return, the link updates.

I've checked that the "update remote references" checkbox is marked on the
Calculation tab in Tools...Options and now I'm stuck. Any help much
appreciated. Thanks.
