I have 2 workbook.

1. Ipe.xlsb
2. Masterfile.xlsx

I have the follpwing formula on Ipe.xlsb]B1

='H:\Prod\[Masterfile.xls.xlsx]Sheet1'!A2

it is not updating unless I press F2 and update it manually.

Is there a way to update the link automatically? Or is there another formula that I can use to make it work?

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
