In 2000, in tools-options-edit, there is the option to ask for updates.
uncheck it and your sheets will update automatically. This will apply to
all excel files.

If you are using Excel XP or 2003, you can set the start-up prompt to
" Don't display the alert and update links "
By clicking Edit then Links, then in the links box in the bottom left is a
start up prompt button.
Unfortunalety you can not do this in Excel 95/97/or 2000.
As for autosaving once the value are updated, i'm afraid I don't think that
is possible, unless you create a before close macro.


Hope that helps

G'day,

I have two spreedsheets which are linked and I am asked everytime I open
them to update the values. Do I have to have this box pop up. Also, if I
forget to save the document the updated values are not saved. Is there an
autosave for everytime the values are updated.

Thx.
