I've brought this up with Microsoft, and the loss of link information is "by
design". Huh! It only happens with sheet-level names, not workbook-level
names. Moving the sheet does not kill the links.
The thing to do is to save the workbook, move the sheet to a new workbook,
close the original workbook without saving changes, reopen the workbook, and
move the sheet into it.
