workbook links
When opening a workbook in Excel I sometimes get the error:
"This workbook contains one or more links that cannot be updated." I know what the error means and can usually track down the offending cells but my question is how do I avoid it? I believe it's caused by cut/paste between workbooks where the reference to the source workbook is maintained. It seems that this reference is only maintained when the cut information refers to another worksheet in the source workbook. So, if the source workbook has a formula like: =SUM(Sheet2!A1:C1) When I paste it into a new workbook I get: =SUM([SourceWorkbook]Sheet2!A1:C1) This seems to occur even if I have a worksheet of the same name, 'Sheet2', in the destination workbook. Is there any way I can indicate to Excel that the pasted cells should refer to 'Sheet2' in the destination workbook rather than 'Sheet2' in the source workbook? Thanks. |
