Default Removing links

I inherited a workbook that has a link to another workbook that no longer
exists. Every time I open this workbook, a message pops up that it can't find
the linked file. I don't need to be linked to the other file, how do I remove
this link?

Hi Dino,

Try going to the "Insert" pull-down menu, then select "Name", then
"Define...". Look to see if there is anything in the list that shouldn't be
there.

Hope that helps.

Regards,
James

It worked! I discovered some names there and deleted them. No more pop-up.
Thank you.
