Default broken links message still popping up

i am attempting to call data from a source (input workbook) into a workbook
(called the output workbook) and when i start up the output workbook after i
am prompted if i want to update or not, i get a message that says the output
workbook contains links to databases (the input file) that cannot be updated.
However, the output workbook gets updated just fine. Is there a way to search
for these links inthe output? (they dont show up when i run a Find-- ".xls"
or "[") If not, is there a way to get this message to dissapear?
