    Question Linked object

    I have an Excel workbook with a link to another Excel file, but I don't know what's linked to that file: a formula, a graph, or what. How can I find what is linked to that file?

    Thank you very much in advance!!

    Kind regards,

    Javier,

    Go through each spreadsheet in turn and enter Find mode by pressing ctrl+F.
    In the 'Find what' box, enter ' :\ '. This will find any link to another
    file. If :\ is found, the cell will be selected and you can then decide if
    you want to keep the link or not.

    Ewan.

    When I can't find links, I'll use Bill Manville's FindLink program:
