Links to several supporting worksheets

If I have one spreadsheet (dependent spreadsheet) which links to several different supporting worksheets, how can I be sure that the dependent spreadsheet automatically updates when I make a change to the supporting worksheet?

RE: links to several supporting worksheets

Hi Katie

Thank you for your question, and apologies for the delay in response.

There will be two ways that links can be updated:

1. If both spreadsheets are open at the same time, the changes/updates should be reflected immediately.
2. If the linked spreadsheet is closed while you are making changes to the supporting spreadsheets, you should get a message next time you open the linked spreadsheet asking you if you wish to update the links.

I hope this helps.
Amanda

Excel tip:

Missing Field handle

If your field handle goes missing all you need to do is go to tools > options > edit tab and then make sure that the check boxes for paste and insert buttons are checked.
