Default Breaking Links in Excel 2000


I've got a spreadsheet that has been saved year over year to the new
year. Although links to certain files are no longer within the body of
the current file, when I go to editlinks, all of the old files show
there as linked to (going back to 1998). I would like the editlinks
to only show the files that the workbook is currently linked to. I know
in Excel 2002+ there is a function that will "break links" but I'm using
Excel 2000 and can't seem to get rid of these many files. Any help would
be appreciated--

Thanks,
Amy

Edit, Links shows only the files to which there are current links. So these
'old' links still exist. To find and delete them you should get the
FindLink utility found he

Thanks Jim-
Does that utility only delete the links from the workbook that you have
open or any workbook on your system?

THanks-
