I would like to know when I run a macro to open a worksheet by following codes,
does excel perform updatelinks function first, before perform re-calculate
function?
or do both functions perform simultaneously?
Do you have any suggestions?
Thank you very much for any suggestions
Eric
Set wkbk = Workbooks.Open(Filename:=WkbkName, UpdateLinks:=3)
