Default Formula updates with SAVE AS

I have 2 spreadsheets. Spreadsheet A has a formula that points to a cell in
Spreadsheet B. If I have both spreadsheets open then do a File Save As in
Spreadsheet B and save it as a CSV file then the formula in Spreadsheet A now
references the newly created CSV file rather than the previous Spreadsheet B.
I wasn't sure if the formula updates with the new file name by design or if
there is a way to prevent this other than ensuring Spreadhseet A isn't open
when I do the save as CSV on Spreadsheet B.
