Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
Assuming you do not mean hyperlinks....

Or
"Find links in a workbook" in the Excel help files. You do a find and replace operation (Ctrl + H)

Regards.

EDIT:
I should be more clear:
If your formulas look like -
=[BookOne.xls]Sheet1!$A$1

You can Find -
BookOne.xls

and Replace -
BookNewBook.xls

I guess I am thinking in terms of updating as changing.

------
If you mean updating links as refreshing the values:
Code:
Sub MyUpdateLinks()

ThisWorkbook.UpdateLink Name:=ThisWorkbook.LinkSources

End Sub

The above code is from the help files and is supposed to update all link sources...I haven't tested it. I changed the reference from ActiveWorkbook (in the help files) to ThisWorkbook (in my code above).

Hope I have got this right for you! I suppose alternatively you could just open the link sources.
