Default change multiple links at once

Hello,

I have a master spreadsheet that has multiple links in it from 150 other
spreadsheets. Needless to say it was very time consuming to link certain
rows from each spreadsheet. If there is a way to automate this for the
future, I would very much appreciate the info. I have no exp in VB by the
way. :) A co-worker was helping me do the links and accidently linked to the
wrong file name. Is there a way to change each link to the correct one
without it being such a manual process? For example, I have a spreadsheet
named County.xls. In that spreadsheet I have multiple rows linked to a
master spreadsheet which is another workbook with many different tabs which
are named after each row I am linking. My coworker linked the master to a
file called County 2010.xls.

Thanks so much in advance. It's extremely time consuming to copy and paste
each row.

Tara

Use Find and Replace, simply replace all instances of County 2010.xls with
County.xls

If this helps, please remember to click yes.
