I have a Word document with links to objects in an Excel workbook. I have set all the links in Word to manual update and I set the option in Word where I unchecked the box for update automatic links when documents open. However, when I open the Word document it then performs an update of all links.

I know this is not a specific Excel questions, but hoping some one here might point me in the right direction to determine why this occurring.

Thanks,

Steve
 

Excel Facts

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
That will happen if the Excel workbook is open, regardless of the settings in Word.
