I have Sheet1 linked to Sheet2. The Sheet2 is linked to the Sheet3.
I want to update values in the Sheet1 linked to the Sheet2 assuming if any
changes are done in the Sheet3 it'll be reflected in the Sheet1.
So, I'm changing the values in the Sheet3 and closing it. After that, having
Sheet1 opened I'm openning the Sheet2 and everything is fine the values in
the Sheet1 have been updated.
But, when I'm clicking a button on the Sheet1 and using the code below it's
not working - the values in the Sheet1 are not updated when I'm doing changes
in the Sheet3 and closing it and after that openning the Sheet2 through the
code below with supposed to be links updated.
Can anybody help me with it.
Sub Update_Links()
On Error GoTo Update_Links_Err
Dim xlapp As Object
Dim xlbook As Object
Dim strFileName As String
Dim logFlag As Boolean
logFlag = False
strFileName = "Sheet2.xls"
Set xlapp = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
xlapp.DisplayAlerts = False
xlapp.AskToUpdateLinks = False
Set xlbook = xlapp.Workbooks.Open(strFileName, UpdateLinks:=1)
logFlag = True
xlapp.AskToUpdateLinks = True
xlapp.DisplayAlerts = True
xlbook.Close savechanges:=True
xlapp.Quit
Set xlbook = Nothing
Set xlapp = Nothing
Update_Links_exit:
Exit Sub
Update_Links_Err:
xlapp.DisplayAlerts = True
xlapp.AskToUpdateLinks = True
If logFlag Then
xlbook.Close savechanges:=False
xlapp.Quit
Set xlbook = Nothing
Set xlapp = Nothing
End If
