How can I quickly find a cell that is referenced to another workbook

Posted by Brian P on December 08, 2000 10:17 AM

Somewhere I in a book of 8 worksheets I have a cell that is referencing another workbook. How can I find it quickly? I have tried to trace dependants and precedants, but I don't know from that whether it's referencing another workbook or just another worksheet.

TIA
