Hi Helen,
Simply select the chart and press Ctrl-Shift-F9 to break the link. A potential problem with this is that you'll need to save the
unlinked copy to a separate file, otherwise you won't be able to update the link later on. An alternative might be to lock the link
to prevent it updating, via Ctrl-F11. You then have the option of unlocking it later on for updating, via Ctrl-Shift-F11.
Cheers

I have created a word document which includes charts linked to an excel file.
Can I now save it without the links in order to send it to someone else, but
so that the charts retain thier values?
