password protected workbooks with links between them
Hi, hope someone can help me. I was using Office 2000 and started using
Office 2003 recently and have since encountered this problem with Excel: I have workbooks which are password protected that contain links to each other. My settings a Edit Links Update Automatic ; Update Remote References box is ticked. My problem is that even though password protected workbooks are open at the same time, if I capture data into the source workbook, the resulting data does not automatically update in the destination workbook, and also, if I want to edit a formula containing a link, in either workbook, it asks for the password of the open workbook. I didn't have this problem in Office 2000 and don't know how to get around it! Please someone help me... Thanks |

password protected workbooks with links between them
I have had a similar issue. In my case it was due to linking files
over various network drives. The way I fixed it was to open both workbooks... then in the workbook with the links to the password protected workbook, go to Edit- Links. Click on the password protected workbook and click change source. Find the password protected file and click ok. see if that helps On Jun 25, 8:20*am, Dez wrote: Hi, hope someone can help me.

Thank you so much! Yes, linking files over various network drives was exactly
the cause of my problem! "Tim879" wrote: I have had a similar issue. In my case it was due to linking files over various network drives.
