I am trying to link cells from a column in workbook 1 to a column in
workbook 2.  (office 2003, winxp)

I choose my destination row, put the '=' in the formula bar, copy the
source row, and I see the formula in the formula bar but when I hit
enter I get a 0 in cell one of the destination row and nothing in any
of the other cells in the row.

I also tried linking a three line address from one workbook to
another. If I do it one line at a time, I have success. If I try to
take the 3 line address in one block and link it all at once, I get
the 'Value" error.

Could someone please tell me how to link more than one cell at a time
between multiple workbooks. Sure would be a lot faster. I feel like
there is one little thing I don't know that would solve this whole
thing.

Thanks for your interest and time

Try:
=IF(Sheet1!A1<>"",Sheet1!A1,"")
Put this formula in the cell where you want info read into,
then adjust the cell address a you need.
You can then autofll ( drag the formula )

Try this:
Open source workbook(ex. SourceWorkbook), open destination workbook(ex.
Destination Workbook).
Destination workbook cell (ex.C2)"=
Select source workbook, select source cell(ex. F22).
Destination workbook cell C2 should have a formula such as:
"=SourceWorkbook.Sheet1!F22"
