I have a word-document with several charts that are linked to an excel file.
When I open the doc a warning appears asking whether I want to update the
objects.
Can I get rid of this?
Thanks.

Jesper

If you don't want the links updated, from the Tools menu in Word, selection
Options and then go to the General tab and uncheck the box against the
"Update automatic links at Open" item.
