I didn't create any links in two Excel 2000 files I was working on yesterday.
But now everytime I open them they are asking if I want to update the links.
1. How do I find out what file they are supposed to be linked to?
2. How do I remove this so-called link?

Thank you

Did you copy anything, or cut and paste between them or between them and any
other workbooks? You may have accidentally created a link by doing that.

Bill Manville's Findlink will do just that for you:-

FINDLINK will indeed find where the links are if you can't, but you can
also see what the source files are via Edit / Links.

In Excel 2002 and later there is a Break Link button on that dialog
that will sever the connection.
