change link path when open destination file
Hi,
the destination file is used by different party. we email each other the destination file to update data where each party has its own source file. my source files are at 'z:\shared\excel' but when i open the destination file, the path is defaulted to 'c:\calc\checking\data'. there are many cells with link to source files. i have worksheet link to several sources file at z drive. may i know how to change the path to the path i want when i open the destination file? currently i use find and replace. it is very tedious and manual. need advice. thanks |
