(using Excel2003 and XP)

i have a wkbookA that has formulas in it linked to cells in wkbookB and
wkbookC
when book A is opened the warning about "Do you want to update links
blah blah...." appears even though I have gone into Edit>Links and on
2003 there is an option to automatically update links and do not warn
user, which I have checked, I've checked this box for all links but
still when the user opens the book the message appears.

would the problem be that i have an autoopen routine in the workbook?

any help greatly appreciated
