It depends on which *direction* you're moving when you create the link.

Going *forward*, from source to target, using say <Copy <PasteSpecial
<PasteLink, will create an *absolute* link.

What you may want to do is use a *backward* link, from target to source.

Click in the target cell,
enter an = sign,
navigate to the source cell,
hit <Enter.

This creates your relative link, which you can easily copy and increment as
needed.

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
