Hi... I have 'workbook 1' with two sheets. Formulaes in sheet 2 are linked to sheet 1 data. I can't seem to copy sheet 2 to a new 'workbook 2' without Excel automaticaly linking formulaes to 'original woorkbook 1.' [just want sheet 2 formulaes in 'WB 2' to link to new 'WB 2', sheet 1] Thanks in advance, Jeff Mc
 
I do an Edit|replace
replace all =
with a unique string ($$$$$)

Then copy|Paste
then edit|replace
all $$$$$
with =

(for both workbooks.)

Another option is to let the links point at the wrong workbook/worksheet, but
then use Edit|links to point at the receiving workbook (already saved once).
