Changing the name of a LINKED EXCEL workbook to a POWERPOINT PRESENTATION. (Office 365 and Windows 11)

[mikeb7500]

I've been working for a couple months on an Excel Workbook which is now linked to a Powerpoint Presention...they are saved as "Smith Calculator" and "Smith Presentation." When I make a change in the Calculator, the links update nicely. They are saved to a single folder on my desktop.

Now here's my issue: Is there a way to RENAME these files so they stay linked to each other? I would like to change them to "Blank Calculator" and "Blank Presentation."

(I don't want to break those links by making a change) THANKS!

Once you rename "Smith Calculator" to "Bank Calculator", you'll need to edit the link in your presentation...

Ribbon >> File >> Info >> Edit Links To Files

Then select your link from the list, click on Change Source, select "Bank Calculator", and then click on OK.

Hope this helps!
