Default Broken Excel Links - move files to another computer

Hi

Is there any easy way to keep the links between Excel files when moving the
files from one computer to another.

Here is the scenario:

I am creating linked Excel files on my computer in the following folder:
C:\Original Destination\Main.xls
C:\Original Destination\Link1\Link1-1.xls
C:\Original Destination\Link1\Link1-2.xls
C:\Original Destination\Link1\Link1-3.xls

All these files are linked to each other.

Now I move it to another computer to the following My Documents folder:
C:\Users\NewUser\New Destination\Main.xls
C:\Users\NewUser\New Destination\Link1\Link1-1.xls
C:\Users\NewUser\New Destination\Link1\Link1-2.xls
C:\Users\NewUser\New Destination\Link1\Link1-3.xls

The links are broken on the new destination computer.

Question: How can I move all Excel files from the original computer to the
new computer without breaking links?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!
Edward
