I have a workbook which I suspect is corrupt, or at least becoming so: I'm
getting truly funky characters, saved changes don't "stick" when I close out
and open it back up, etc.

I'd like to just move the active sheets out of the current workbook and put
them in a new workbook to see if that helps. My plan was to move them and
then use "Replace" to delete the file path to the original workbook which
Excel inserts into the formulas. Unfortunately, I can't even get to this
point because the appended formulas are too long and get cut off.

Is there a way to tell Excel NOT to update the formulas to include paths to
external workbooks? I need the formulas to be functional in the new workbook,
so I don't want to convert to values only.

Thanks for any help anyone can offer!
