One reason might be calculation. By default Excel updates links to other documents when a recalculation occurs. This can be turned off under File &amp;gt; Excel Options &amp;gt; Advanced &amp;gt; &amp;#39;When calculating this workbook&amp;#39; section. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Calculation also occurs when the spreadsheet is saved. You can try hitting CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+F9 to rebuild the calculation chain or you can try setting calculation to manual instead of automatic and see if that helps.&lt;/p&gt;
