Link to other worksheet fails.
This question is a bit long winded, but I hope someone can help.
I have a Workbook thats linked to another work book on the server at work
€śP€ť drive.
When I open the first work book €śBill Sheet Log€ť and go to the cell €śC2€ť
thats linked to the other sheet €śTwinwire Estimating Sheet€ť the formula
looks like this- ='P:\Contracts Quoted\Twinwire Pitch\[Twinwire Estimating
Sheet.xls]Start Sheet'!$C$5. If I open €śTwinwire Estimating Sheet€ť first then
go to open €śBill Sheet Log€ť the formula looks like this-
='\\wm01srv\public\Contracts Quoted\Twinwire Pitch\[Twinwire Estimating
Sheet.xls]Start Sheet'!$C$5.
When they are both like this and I change [Twinwire Estimating
Sheet.xls]Start Sheet'!$C$5.
€śBill Sheet Log€ť C2 doesnt change, but sometimes when both are open the
formula looks like this- ='[Twinwire Estimating Sheet.xls]Start Sheet'!$C$5
and when the formula is like this €śBill Sheet Log€ť C2 changes when I change
€ś[Twinwire Estimating Sheet.xls]Start Sheet'!$C$5€ť.
My question is what do I need to do so the cell changes every time I change
the other cell, can I lock this link?
