How keep links when copy worksheets to another file?
I want to move 2 worksheets (Alpha & Beta) from file ABC.xls to STU.xls,
then I'll delete ABC.xls. Beta is linked to Alpha, and I want to keep the links. However, when I copy/move Alpha & Beta to STU.xls, the Beta worksheet links back to Alpha in file ABC.xls. How do I copy/move Alpha & Beta to STU.xls so that Beta is linked to Alpha in file STU.xls? Jack |

How keep links when copy worksheets to another file?
If Beta is linked to just Alpha you should not get any links back to ABC
after copying or moving. But since you say it does................ After copying the two sheets to STU.xls With STU.xls open go to EditLinksChange source. Link to STU.xls The links between Alpha and Beta will remain with no reference to ABC.xls Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP On Fri, 16 Jan 2009 11:28:13 -0500, "Jack B" wrote: I want to move 2 worksheets (Alpha & Beta) from file ABC.xls to STU.xls, then I'll delete ABC.xls.

Gord, Since you said, "If Beta is linked to just Alpha you should not get any links back to ABC," I decided to do a MOVE instead of a COPY -- that worked. Thanks.
