Excel-to-Word Link Updates
Im attempting to copy and paste a portion of an Excel 2007 worksheet into a
Word 2007 document, using the Paste Link option. My understanding is that if you change data in the worksheet, the changes will automatically be made in the Word document, even if the Word document is open. It is not working that way. I can right-click the Excel object in the Word document and select Update Link. The data then updates properly. Also, if I close the Word document and re-open it, Im prompted to update the link, and the updates show properly. Should the linked Excel object in the Word document be updated automatically, even if the Word document is open? |

Excel-to-Word Link Updates
Changes will only be made when the word document is open (or opened).
Works fine for me. In Excel 2007 I copied a couple of cells In Word I used Home Paste Paste Special Microsoft Excel Object; Paste Link When I change the cells in Excel they change in Word. Bill Manville MVP - Microsoft Excel, Oxford, England No email replies please - respond to newsgroup |
