    How to change (Excel) source of all linked objects in a word docu.

    nIn a MS Word document with linked objects, is there a quick way to change
    all linked objects (over 50) from one source spreadsheet to a differnet
    source spreadsheet? (Too slow to do one at a time.)

    You should be able to use the Replace command:

    Press Alt + F9, to view the field codes
    Choose Edit>Replace
    In Find What, type the old file name
    In Replace With, type the new file name
    Click Replace All
    Confirm the replacement
    Close the Replace dialog box
    Press Alt +F9 to hide the field codes
    Press Ctrl + A, to select All
    Press F9, to update the selected links
