Hi,

I notice that all the formulas link from one work book to another are in
form of "absolute" cell refrence.

Eg. ='[Budget 2010.xls]jh'!$E$222

This does not serve my need as I need to copy the formulas across the
spreasheet.

Usually I would remove the $ manually before copying across.

May I know if there is a way of changing the formula from absolute to
relative, i.e. removing the $ in row only, column only or both
automatically?

Thanks

Low
