Default Linked sheets not updating properly with dual monitors

I'm set up with a dual monitor system. With one spreadsheet open on one
monitor and another on the second monitor the linking functions do not
operate. I also can't create new links between the two. Everything works
fine if I have both open in the same screenwith split view. How do I, or can
I, correct for this??

Default Linked sheets not updating properly with dual monitors

Hi,

Suppose that you are opening a different instance of Excel in each window,
the link from one open workbook is not to the other open workbook, but to the
saved copy. If you make a change in one instance of Excel you will need to
click Save, then switch to the other copy and update links.

If this helps, please click the Yes button.

Cheers,
Shane Devenshire
