I have an annoying problem that keeps coming up. I have sheets and sheets of
charts (we produce about 400 of them every quarter, distributed over 2 files). I have the charts linked to certain other files, which get updated regularly. For some reason every time I am using the chart file a new quarter, a few of the charts link to old files that are no longer the active ones. I change the links, save new copies of all (and I do it in the order that is necessary for the chart files to remember the new names, so I know that's not the problem), and then am done with it. At this point, it is happening, and the way I find the links is just to go through each chart and click on the items until I see the name in the formula bar that is an old file name. The I know I just need to update that link to the new file. Is there any code I can use that would effectively: 1) search each sheet of the workbook 2) on any sheet, search the source links for every input of each chart on the worksheet 3) if it's got a particular string in the links, tell me (pause on it, write down the chart title, anything). This way I could just run the macro to know where I need to go, as opposed to clicking through the visible data items of all the charts each time. Thx. -- Boris |
