I had a filter macro working fine as long as I copy and pasted
information into Worksheet1.

When I got the information to automatically link to Worksheet1 from an
outside workbook, my macro stopped working.

Ideas?

This macro works by taking data from worksheet1 called "Details" and
filtering
it for a report on worksheet2 called "Summary."
Works great. BUT!
I changed the Details worksheet to become a link from another
workbook. Now
this macro doesn't work. How do I maintain the link while allowing
this macro to
work?
