I get the following message when I open a workbook I'm using. I have
no idea what it's refering to. How can I figure that out so I can
stop this message from popping up every time?

"The workbook you opened contains automatic links to information in
another workbook. Do you want to update this workbook with changes
made to the other Workbook?"

Links to other workbooks could be as simple as formulas that refer to ranges in
other workbooks. But they can live in workbook names and other places that are
difficult to find.

If you're having trouble finding that link,
get Bill Manville's FindLink program:
