Default Identifying workbooks with links to external file

I have a list of workbooks and I want to be able to determine which ones have
a link to an external file. All I want at this point is "YES" or "NO".
What do I need to do programmatically to capture if a link is present in a
file. I've got the FINDLINK utility available, but I need to know how many
documents are affected first.

Tell me what needs to be done to this

Sub LinksPresent()
Dim oWB As Workbook
Dim aWB As Workbook
Dim aWS As Worksheet

Set aWB = ActiveWorkbook
Set aWS = ActiveSheet
Range("H1").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "Link Present"
For i = 2 To Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).row
Set oWB = Workbooks.Open(Cells(i, "B"), ReadOnly = True, UpdateLinks
= False)
Range("H" & i).Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=WHAT GOES HERE"
Next i
aWB.Save
End Sub

Thanks in advance,
Barb Reinhardt
