File Not Found

S

Salvatore Iannazzo

I have Excel 2000, and I use Paste Links often. Sometimes
one of my files seems to get "infected" in such a way that
when I open it, I get a "File Not Found" window that seems
to be looking for another file that has been moved to
another folder or deleted and which bears no relation to
the file just opened. I have tried everything I can think
of to stop this window from appearing but with no
success. The help files in Excel are of no help. This not
a fatal problem but a constant nuisance. Any suggestions
anybody?

It sounds as if your workbook has a link to another workbook. If so Edit,
Links will show you its name. To find where the link is in your workbook,
so you can remove it if you want, get Bill Manville's FinkLink utility from
Stephen Bullen's site:
