I have built a set of spreadsheets that track our plant operation.
It consists of one sheet we call the input sheet that we put our daily
readings in ( power, water,motor hour meter, etc.) and twelve sheets
(January - December) that have the formulas to draw the information to the
appropriate equipment.
My plans were to at the years end to save as to the next years date, wipe
out my input page and start over. Here is my delima. The save as sheet still
tries to draw from the previous years input page. Any ideas ?
Thanks

You could look in Excel help for "edit links"

Or don't bother with Excel help at all and waste your time posting and
waiting for someone to tell you......................

Your time is yours to distribute as you see fit so.............

In 2003 EditLinks

In 2007 DataEdit Links

Are you saying that you don't know how to invoke Excel Help? It is
pretty much universal that "Help" is on the right hand side of the menu
system, and can also be started by pressing the F1 key.

Obviously I have offended someone or ones. I apologise.
I thought I had exlored all places for edit and realised the page I was
looking at did not draw from the input page so edit was not highlighted and
was not an option.
I do appreciate the guidance and will try not to overlook the obvious from
here on in.

Not a problem. I suspect it partly comes from frustration due to so many
folks expecting the Help contents to be copied/pasted here in the thread.

Not an inconvenience to myself.

Just trying to show you a much quicker way to get help.

30 seconds to find out how to edit links would suit me far better than
taking the time to post and wait for an answer.
