Excel, Copy sheet with formulas to new workbook, replace existing reference












0














I have a sheet with many formulas. I am trying to copy them into a new workbook however the formulas reference the previous workbook.



How can I replace the previous workbook reference in these formulas?



I have tried find and replace,
Find What: '[workbook v1.1.xlsm]
ReplaceWith : "" , i've also tried just leaving this field blank.



I get the following error:



"We found a problem with the following formula"



Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks.

Looks like I was able to to go Data -> Edit Links -> Then choose the current workbook from the file picker. It got rid of all other workbook references I had.
