I have 5 spreadsheets that are linked into one "Totals" spreadsheet that feeds one Chart that is linked into a Microsoft Word document. When I change something on one of the base spreadsheets, I get to choose whether I let the change be reflected on the composite, the chart, and the Word document. No Macro's requried.
