OK im half way there.

I have in my Word document my excel spread sheet, and on the 2nd page i have a 'paste special', 'paste link', 'picture' spreadsheet (copy of the first)
The whole reason is because i want the second to update itself if i do anything to the first one BUT...

as soon as i exit that document and go back into it the link between those spreadsheets seems to be broken?

Have i done the whole process wrong, or is there just some other option that needs to be enabled or taken into account?

cheers
 

Excel Facts

What did Pito Salas invent?
Pito Salas, working for Lotus, popularized what would become to be pivot tables. It was released as Lotus Improv in 1989.
I thought it was:

Insert ... | Object | Create From File | Link to File (checkbox)
