Hi there
In old Excel if I click on a link or use ctrl+[ I could go directly to the linked cell in the external spreadsheet, but in Excel 2007 all it does is open the workbook in the place it was last saved.
Does anyone know how can I get Excel 2007 to go directly to the linked cell?
 

Excel Facts

Return population for a City
If you have a list of cities in A2:A100, use Data, Geography. Then =A2.Population and copy down.
I can't reproduce that behaviour. For me the linked cell is selected. I have Excel 2007 (12.0.6514.5000) SP2 MSO (12.0.6425.1000). My link formula was:

='C:\Users\Andrew\Documents\MrExcel\[Book2.xlsx]Sheet2'!$B$3
