Delete LinkSource
Herve, The source path may have changed. The file may still exist but was moved to a different location. Search your computer for the file using the search option on the Start menu if you need to restablish the link. Once you know where it is, open your file, Edit/Links/Change source and direct the link to the new location. If you don't care and just want to delete the link, you should also have a selection called "Break Link". Select this and a pop up will appear asking you if you are sure you want to do that. Click OK and the link will be gone.

Herve, It should be an option when you go to Edit/Links. Steve -- SteveG ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SteveG's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...fo&userid=7571 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=492153 |

Herve, Unfortunately I don't have 2000 but I looked it up and the direction I gave you should apply to 2000 as well. You have to select the link in the Source box from Edit/Links. Then maybe it will activate the "Break Link" option. Again, since I don't have 2000, I can only rely on microsoft.com, who gives the same direction. Good Luck!

When I can't find links, I'll use Bill Manville's FindLink program:
