Default Cells linked to another workbook with a formula.

I have a workbook that is linked to another workbook, but I have included a
formula at the beginning to ensure that no errors are returned
(If(iserror(linked workbook A1 + Linked workbook B1),"",linked workbook A1 +
Linked workbook B1))). This works fine when both workbooks are open, but
when I attempt to open the linked file on its own it doesn't appear to update
the information. When I check the link status, it shows that it is ok.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

From the top menu (assuming Excel 2003 or lower), select...
Edit Links Update Values
