Hi

I am trying to paste a linked chart in a Word'97 document. However, I get a pop-up in Word saying "Word cannot obtain the data for the Microsoft Excel Chart link." I can create linked tables from the same spreadsheet but all charts get this error. I suspect it may be something to do with a number of old links in the spreadsheet to other files that I seem not to be able to get rid of. Has anyone seen this before?

Thanks
