If I understood well your question, to resolve that, I usualy go to Data / Queries & Connections / Edit Links => Select the original spreadsheet ([MORSUM 2017.xls], on your exemple) => hit "Change Source" bottom => select the new spreadsheet.Usualy It works.
But you must be carefully, in one case: If you have another cells in the same spreadsheet, with formulas (that you don't want to change) with references to the original spreadsheet, you will have a problem, because the formulas also going to be changed.

Probably, on the day, you will be the one to help me;)
