Excel Edit Links Will Not Update?
Apr 19, 2013I have inherited an excel document that has dashboards, data pages and pivot tables. There is macro and links within this but I can not view the macros at all. When trying to update the links ( using break,update, change) it appears to work ( changes to OK) but the location field on bottom of edit links page NEVER goes to new location and the MANUAL button is greyed out. I need to be able to update this master file tomorrow with the multiple excel sheets I will get but do not know how to do it if can not update links proeprly or even be able to view the macro

Edit Excel Formula Links To Use Environment Variables Instead Of Static Absolute Paths
Sep 30, 2013Is there a way that formula links in spreadsheets can use environment variables to reference formulas in other spreadsheets/addins?
For example, I have a spreadsheet that imports templates which call functions in an addin. The spreadsheet, templates and the addin could be installed into either the 'Program Files' or the 'Program Files (x86)' folders.
I am experiencing issues with the formula references when moved between 32 and 64 bit computers since Excel seems to store the full path of the addin in the Excel formula (even though it hides it when the reference resolves its path) in my templates. I would like to update the references in my templates so that they use an environment variable (set by my software installer) to always know the correct path of the addin.
In Excel 2003, spreadsheet links are edited via: 'Edit'->'Links'
In Excel 2007 and higher,'Data'->'Edit Links'
Edit Links - Break Links Not Working?

Dec 12, 2007Is it possible to update external links on a worksheet via running a macro?
I have a worksheet where some cells have external links to other files, and every month I have to scroll through and do the typing in order to have everything up and running.
A typical cell has formulas like =[E:ReportsAug-2007.xls]Data!F25
Another cell =[E:ReportsAug-2007.xls]Data!F43
and so on.
Every new month I actually have to replace all [E:ReportsAug-2007.xls] occurrences with for example [E:ReportsSep-2007.xls]. So, is it possible to have a macro which opens a textbox of which i can type the new month 'Sep', so that when the macro runs I save all the typing?
Edit Links When New Worksheet Added
Jun 27, 2008[url]
I was wondering if it is possible to update links from one worksheet to another that contains a running tally - even when another worksheet is added and needs to be linked to the running tally as well?
I have attached a sample workbook. What I have is a summary sheet ( Sum Hrs CMS) that has SUMIF calculations for a series of rows in the Estimate Sheet.
The problem that I have run into is - when you press the Add New Sheet button on the Estimate sheet, it copies hidden sheet and inserts it at the end of the workbook, however I then need the hours in the CMS portion to link to the summary sheet. What I was wondering is how do the links on the 'Sum Hrs CMS' sheet include this new sheet and the data that is entered on it?

Macro To Open New Files And Edit Links
May 12, 2014I'm trying to set up a macro so that: in column C I will see the current (old) links being used by the workbookin column D I will input the new links I want to use in the workbookthe macro will open all those files in column Dthe macro will then replace the current (old) links with those listed in column D
I have the following so far, but something doesn't seem to be working - it gets as far as opening the first new file but doesn't open any others and doesn't change any links (although I've tested the part to change links separately and this seemed to work ok).

Unable To Edit Links With Workbook Open Because Of Invalid Reference?
May 31, 2013I'd prefer to edit links with the source workbook open, however I receive this error when I do "A formula in this worksheet contains one or more invalid references." I am able to edit links with the source workbook closed but this takes far too much time to be satisfied with that as the solution. I have used vlookup formulas and the index-match method and they both take about the same amount of time to update. I've separated each worksheet and used the "name manager" add-in and have searched all links for any type of error. I feel like I'm missing something. Is there a way to fix this "invalid reference" error so that I can edit my links with the source workbook open?
View 1 Replies View RelatedCopy Entire Row By Range & Suppress 'Cannot Edit Links' Message
Jun 25, 2008I have 10 workbooks which have various calculations and have several links to each other. We use Excel 2003.
For each of these files, I have the following code in the Auto_Open module
Range Range(“TodayComp”) is a date taken form a link in another spreadsheet. It is on Column 3, but the row changes every day as more rows are inserted before it
This sub looks at Range(“TodayComp”) and checks the date on the cell directly above.
If say Range(“TodayComp”) is 6/25/2008, and the cell above is 6/22/2008, it will insert three rows right above Range(“TodayComp”). These rows need to be copied with formulas from the current row above Range(“TodayComp”)
Issue One:
The following code works (it copies the rows), but it takes forever to run, as you can see in bold, I copy and paste each cell, instead of the entire row.
Is there a way to copy and paste the entire row? Remember that I have only a named range to refer to, no cell address as it changes every time.

Find & Amend/Edit Data Via Userform
Mar 30, 2008A.) As a user is entering data into a userform two specific values need to be checked in the existing data sheet.
Textbox1 ( date)
Combobox (operation name) {4 tabs on from textbox1)
They relate to the data stored in columns 'A' and 'E' respectivly.
What I'd like is, as the user exits combobox4 to check if the values already exist. If they do; fill the coresponding textboxes with those values and allow the user to make any amendments, then have it SAVE to the SAME row, would a record number be necessary to accomplish this?
B.) For a future development, Im thinking of applying the same principle to a different project, where 3 values need checking.
Textbox9000 (date) Column 'A'
ComboBox1002 (Staff member) Column 'B'
Combobox1003 (operation name) Column 'C'
Possible complications are that below combobox1003 there will be 12 other comboboxes(a value title, from column header) with associated textboxes alongside(value previously entered by user).
There will be 22 possible values for the comboboxes(the values will be the same column headers) The user will only ever have the choice of making 12 entries though.
Does any one have any spare code laying round for this one..
Links To CSV Files, Find And Replace Not Working
Apr 9, 2009I have a large spreadsheet that has links to CSV files. Every month I need to create a new folder and put the CSV files into that folder, all the CSV files from month to month have the same name for each worksheet.
I'm trying to do Find and replace on the Folder name within the links to change say, February to March so I can just add the CSV files for each month and the spreadsheet will link to the new CSV file in the folder.
I have even tried adding all the February CSV's to the March folder so that when I overwrite the CSV's it will update the master spreadsheet, but it keeps asking me where to look for the folder.
Here is an example of a link:
='\FileservermsbilBRANCH REPORTSBM ReportsFebruary[TItemToDispense@40186 Export Dispensed Item Data-00.CSV]TItemToDispense@40186 Export Di'!BM2
As you can see the folder is named February within the link and I need to replace it with March.

Jul 16, 2014I copied 2 worksheets from one file to another and went in to "Edit Links" and changed the source to itself rather than the original file which took away those links in the cells that the original file was present in, but it still gives me a dialogue when opening the file that links to the original file. I go back to "Edit Links" and press "Break Link" but it doesn't seem to remove the link to the original file. If I click on "Connections", none are present. I clicked on "Startup Prompt" and set it so that it wouldn't annoy me with the prompt any more, but I'd ideally like to not have any reference to the original file.

Sep 25, 2011I have 3 potx files, for one of them the links come out as:
Site Safety Metrics Rollup.xlsm!PPT1!R101C2:R118C14
the other are like:
C:EHS ReportsTFP EHS ReportSite Safety Metrics Rollup.xlsm!PPT1!R192C2:R209C14
I want to have the same format as the first one i.e., without the path. When the potx files are refreshed the link file will always be opened, so i do not need the path (this is part of a vba program).
The folder containing the files will be sent around and put in different drives.
'EHS Reports' is the main folder and that and everything else inside will remain the same. But the ppt links will not change so obviously will not update when the 'EHS Reports' folder is somewhere else.
Why did the links show up in different formats?

Jun 19, 2009I have recorded a macro in Excel that copies the contents of a cell in one worksheet, then goes to another, selects a column, runs the Find command and then pastes the clipboard contents into the "Find what" field.
Naturally when I read the code back in visual basic the macro is now programmed to always search for the data I copied from the original cell. The problem is the data in that cell changes all the time so I need it to always copy whats in there and paste it into the Find what field.
Using Find And Replace Command In VBA?
Apr 3, 2014I have one sheet in my workbook called 'mapping' which has a list of codes on it, the length of which will vary on a periodic basis.
I have another fairly large sheet on the workbook called 'data' (around 2000 rows) that will also vary in size. I want to do a search on the data tab for each code that is contained on column 4 of the mapping tab and if the code is found, enters the corresponding value from column 1 of the mapping tab to the cell 6 columns to the left of where the code was found on the data tab (cols H and B in this case). Hopefully that makes sense!
The issue I have is the codes maybe contained more than once on the data tab so I need the find/replace command to search the whole of the data tab and perform the task each time.

Search And Edit Excel Data In Userform?
Mar 2, 2013 I work in a small team of 5 people, but each of us is very busy and get emails from our manager asking us to complete different tasks. I have made a userform in excel for our manager to create the tasks in and put all the details in sheet1. This creates each separate task on a separate row. Now I want each of my colleagues to log into the sheet and be able to retrieve a task with the same userform. I am giving each task it's own ID, so I want to be able to search by this and the userform will be populated with the task details. I also have combobox's with the status of each task (Completed, In progress etc.) I want to be able to change these in the userform too.
