Excel Links Problems
My office recently upgraded from Office 97 to 2003. Since doing so our linked Excel Workbooks have been getting a #REF error when opened. I have now re-established the links between workbooks (19 in all) and we no longer get the #REF error message. However, I have now unknowingly created a hierarchy of linked workbooks: Data or source workbook A; then target workbooks B; then final T...

They might have been saved with another version of Excel, I don't know. If these files are copied or saved-as, the copies also work. On the files that work, the hyperlink base can be deleted, and lat...

Linking multiple files
-- We have a daily schedule sheet that our power marketers use to enter their daily power sales and purchases.
