Excel Links are broken/cant be located
When opening an older excel document, I first get a message to update the excel.
But it fails and gives me the following messages.
I then logged into OneDrive where the file is saved and it gives me a few more options. (as shown below in the snap shots)
What will happen if I select break links?
Will the formulas still work?
- I advise not to click Break links. It will turn any formula that contains the link into a hard-coded value! Instead, open the file in desktop Excel and us e a tool like FINDLINK to work out where your link is used exactly: https://manville.org.uk/software/findlink.htm
