Someone moved my linked file
I have a spreadsheet that links into several other sheets spread all
over my network. Yesterday someone decided to move a directory that contained several of the spreadsheets I was linking into. Now I have two questions. 1. Is there a simple way to update my spreadsheet to refer to the new location? 2. If I look at a cell referring to one of these sheets it still has the old path etc... but when I update the links it doesn't produce an error in the cell. Why is this? Surely it should report a problem. Instead is continues to show it's previous value. I am running Excel XP Thanks for any help Keith |

Keith:
From the menu select EDIT | LINKS Then select each of the offending links and use the CHANGE SOURCE button to change the link. -- HTHs Martin "Keith" wrote: I have a spreadsheet that links into several other sheets spread all over my network.
