Hi,

I'm having major problems when Excel changes links in one of my workbooks to a "Roaming" version of the link. I can fix the problem when it appears in a formula in a cell, but how can I quickly change all the links in a bunch of charts? I have many charts that each refer to 15 different spdshts. So changing all the series manually would be a terrible pain. Excel doesn't see these when you do Find/Replace.

Also, what do I need to do in the future to avoid Excel making this change?

Thanks!
Tim

Office 365 customers have access to Waterfall charts since late 2016. They were added to Excel 2019.
Doing Edit/Links/Change Source changes all references at once.
