Hi,
I have used Vlook up across different workbooks. This has worked fine. The problem arises when I resave the source workbook to another name and place. The Vlook up function then actually defers from the original workbook and links to the new work book. Is there any way I can "lock" the formulae so that it remains linked to the original workbook? Suggestions are very much appreciated. -- Jen |

All you have to do is close the workbook with the links in it at some moment
before you resave the source file to a different name and place. The other option is to close both workbooks. Then do the rename using windows explorer. -- Allllen "Jen" wrote: Hi, I have used Vlook up across different workbooks. This has worked fine.
