Shane,
I tried this. Same problem. The spreadsheed points to a not available file
share. The cells still shows "value".
Cheers,
Al

Hi,
We have svereal spreadsheets with exeternal contents. Excel 07 always starts
with trying to update this links even if we change the settings in the trust
center - external contents.
Excel shows then the cells in "value". I would like to start Excel without
updating the links.
Can somebody help me please?
