Moving xls files that have links??
Hi Bill,
When you move things around from one workbook to another be sure to group the worksheets that are interrelated to one another together as a group; otherwise, you will break links between worksheets. You know what group is, I hope, the thing that if you forget to ungroup you will damage everything because any change to one sheet in a group will be made to all sheets in the group. So be sure to ungroup immediately when finished with a group. --- HTH, David McRitchie, Microsoft MVP - Excel My Excel Pages: http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/excel.htm Search Page: http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/search.htm "Bill" wrote in message ...

Hi Bill,
Provided you maintain the same folder names and relationships, moving them as a group to a new parent folder should work fine. If the folder names and/or relationships change, you'll need to update the links. For each target worksheet, you can use Edit|Links to point to the new source workbook location.
