Ken,
Thanks for your quick reply. I need to clarify: I have both OpenOffice (Version 3.2.1) and Microsoft Office (Version 2003) on my computer. I was having the problem with both of them. I downloaded a fresh copy of it and now I only have to problem in OpenOffice. When I open it in OpenOffice I get the following message: "This file contains links to other files. Should they be updated? [Yes] [No]". When I open it in Microsoft Office, I get: "This workbook contains queries to external data that refresh automatically… [Enable Automatic Refresh] [Disable Automatic Refresh]". I am guessing these 2 dialogs are doing the same thing. The behavior I am getting now makes me think it may be a OpenOffice problem?
