    Break Links

    I have inadvertently created a link between spreadsheets.
    How in god's name do you get rid of this?
    There is a horribly mis-named feature called 'break link' which does NOTHING other than waste our time.
    Is there some other method someone could let me know about?
    Thanks!!!

    the link is probably hidden somewhere else in the sheet.
    check the named ranges, the conditional formatting and the data validation and pivot table sources.

    You could also upload a sheet and we could find it (obviously stripping out all the formula and data for your privacy).
    If you want something done right... find a forum and ask an online expert.
