I have old links in a document that no longer exist however the file still
looks for them...... How can I deleted them.

Note: Data, Edit Connections, delete does not work

I use Excel 2007

Thanks

Try looking in the defined names collection.

Do you mean DataEdit Links does not work?

Do you see the links in the dialog but cannot "break links"?

Perhaps the links are in defined names?

FormulasName Manager..............anything in there?

Use this code to break all links:

Sub UseBreakLink()
Dim astrLinks As Variant
astrLinks = ActiveWorkbook.LinkSources(Type:=xlLinkTypeExcelLi nks)
For i = 1 To UBound(astrLinks)
ActiveWorkbook.BreakLink _
Name:=astrLinks(i), _
Type:=xlLinkTypeExcelLinks
Next i
End Sub
