Hi Anne, it links just to another excel file, but only on certain pages and
then
always to the same file. It's disgusting..

So you saved the file to a new name? Have you tried Edit--Links? Or try
these:

What do you type into the cell?

What do the links show?

Could it be that the cells have a style of Hyperlink so that they look like
links?

select a problem cell (for testing)
format|Style
Does Style Name show Hyperlink?
if yes, change it to normal.
If no, then never mind.

You can use ctrl-a (twice in xl2003) to select all the cells and change the
style all at once if you want.

Thanks, Dave.

it is an empty cell and as soon as I go over with the mouse it shows a link
to another worksheet. Thew style of the cell is normal. With "right-clicking"
and "remove hyperlink" it is ok, but I have to do it with each cell and how
many cells has a whole worksheet .. :-/

It sounds like all the cells have existing links there.

Select all the cells (ctrl-A (twice in xl2003))
hit alt-f11 (to get to the VBE, where macros live)
hit ctrl-g (to see the immediate window)

type this and hit enter:

selection.hyperlinks.delete

Close the VBE and back to excel to see if it worked.

===
You could even just select a smaller range and just clean that since the command
uses the current selection.
