Search workbook for links

Post by VegasNath »

How can I search a workbook for external links, without removing them?

Idealy, I need to remove the external link, but maintain the worksheet and cell link, but in the active workbook.

Or use Bill Manville's free add-in Findlink.xla from Office Automation Ltd. - The Excel MVP Page.
Best wishes,

Edit | Links | Change Source was greyed out. The links were to a temporary file I was using from email. Luckily, there were only 3 links and Bill's add-in found them immediately.

Many Thanks to you both.
