I'm building a spreadsheet which is fed a series of data from another spreadsheet. The same data is reused several times within the file I'm building. I'm not entirley sure how Excel stores linked values. Does Excel look up a cell reference 1x's and store that as a variable which it recalls as needed, or does it look the reference up everytime it encounters the same reference?
The follow-up question :
Is it better to have each reference in my document link to the same cell in the external document, or am I better (from a calculation standpoint) to have one external link to that cell and have all the other cells in my file point to the cell with that external link. Which will take less calculation power from Excel?
Any help is appreciated.
