finding link references
I just obtained a 10MB Excel 2000 file from a client. Somewhere amongst all
the data, cells and formulas, there is a link to an external file named '2002 budget.xls', but unfortunately this file is lost. I have tried to find the cell or chart that contains this referce but so far have been unsuccessful. Is there a way to search the file to find out where the reference to this link resides? |

This is a fantastic solution!
I'd highly recommend it to anyone wanting a quick and easy way to search for external links - especially those pesky hidden ones. "Frank Kabel" wrote in message ...
