Launch Calc and create files "source.ods" and "target.ods". Write number 123 to cell B3 in "source.ods", save. Click on cell B3 and copy to clipboard, e.g using the icon. Go to document "target.ods" and click on cell A4. Then open the drop-down list from "Paste" icon. Select item "Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE link)'. Look in input bar. You see something similar to ='file:///D:/Desktop/Quelle.ods'#$Sheet1.B3 It is a file link. Expected: Something similar to =DDE("soffice";"D:\Desktop\Quelle.ods";"Sheet1.B3") If you drag&drop with Ctrl+Shift, then a DDE link is generated. The DDE link works as expected. Changes in the source file are automatically reflected in the target file without need to press Strg+Shift+F9. Manually entering the function DDE works too. You might argue about using DDE (see bug 49327), but if it is labeled 'Dynamic Data Exchange' it should use DDE funktion. Suggestion: Provide both kind of links in the drop-down list of the insert icon.

The problem exists as described still in Version: 7.6.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 9d44236a62bf59d120dda89924d0d1407b2bd52b CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19045; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: en-US (en_US); UI: en-US Calc: CL threaded
Since 25.2 I cannot enter a new link or edit file links that I've used for 10 years. The Hyperlink dialog will insert one, but I only want the data. In the creation dialog, I'm not able to select a cell, only a sheet. The selection list on the left is next to useless because it does not actually highlight what it selected. One has to divine what is from the skinny line at left. It is impossible to get rid of the external link warning. How anyone could think this new operation is a feature is beyond me. Fix all the bugs, then worry about making it pretty.

Created attachment 200130 [details] Link Address Address that's been there for 10 years.
Created attachment 200131 [details] No File Name on Edit Link In ALL prior versions, editing a link broke it into it's component parts.
Created attachment 200132 [details] No Auto Edit Unable to change links to update automatically and get rid of the annoying yellow banner that used to disappear with Allow Updating. General setting Allow Updating is set, to no avail.
Created attachment 200133 [details] Settings If a file in the same folder is no longer trusted, heaven help us. So, I went through more machinations - which is not in the help about links: file:///C:/Program%20Files/LibreOffice/help/en-US/text/shared/02/09070300.html?DbPAR=SHARED#bm_id551615667308718
Created attachment 200134 [details] No Trusted Location in Help The Links Help has not a word about Trusted Locations I posted a query on Ask.LibreOffice about earlier this week ago and as yet no response...
