Hi Tom,

Yes I had the OO as copy/paste between sheets and that is all I had to 
do to get them updating correctly.  When I tried same with say from a OO 
sheet to a new LO sheet then the LO sheet would not update whenever the 
OO sheet changed so I had to go back to all the OO sheets and "convert" 
them to LO.   However even then the LO sheet/s would not update correctly...

Now there are several instances in LO re Updating linked Cells:

In Options-General I have Update Links When Opening set to Always
In the Sheet I have Tools-Cell Contents set to Autocalculate

In the Help doc (under Updates, links on opening) it also says one can 
use Edit-Links...
This also mentions DDE links and using Copy/Paste Special and setting 
the Link option.
I am not sure about this as it mentions it is relative to text data and 
losing decimals etc. and if you use this on a cell you get a linked 
address to the cell it is linked from which has different address (extra 
DDE info) than if you just use Copy/Paste.

Hope that is all clear!

I think the Help doc could use some clarification.

Hi :)

Did you set one of them (OOo or LO) to use links like Excel?  I'm not 
sure where
to look that up
Regards from
Tom :)

Subject: [libreoffice-users] Re: OpenOffice Spreadsheet & LibreOffice 
Calc

Hi Frank,

Thanks but I am using Ubuntu Linux.  I found that when converting
OpenOffice sheets to LibreOffice that there is a problem with linked
cells and one has to save the LibreOffice sheet to a new name (cannot
re-use existing ods file).

hi rrand,
try to deactivate the "pre-start-option" (?) - with me (unter Win 7 and
XP) it works.

I am having problems with LibreOffice which will not link cells
correctly from one sheet to another, whether they were originally
created in OpenOffice or not.

Hello rrand,

There is a difference in the way these two handle linked cells.  If

LibreOffice the value is not automatically updated if it

only

'remember' the old value even if you relink the cell.

This could pose problems when one wishes to no longer use

OpenOffice in

favour of LibreOffice as you do not know if any linked values are

being

updated properly.


I've not experienced your problem directly, but I know that in 

Writer

the default settings for updating linked Fields are sometimes not
intuitive.

Maybe there's a preference you can set somewhere about automatic vs
manual updating of links?

Bests,
