Description Vineet 2013-09-30 07:55:47 UTC
Problem description:
I have successfully linked a csv file to worksheet.
Update the link via Edit -- Links -- Update is also working.

Problem -- When I try to modify the link from Edit--Links--Modify -- specify another file -- it shows the name of modified file in place of earlier file.
But upon updating, the worksheet doesn't get modified. No error message. 

Steps to reproduce:
1. Insert--Sheet from file--browse--select a csv file--check-box of "Link" is checked
2. Upon clicking "Update" button, the data gets updated from csv file.
3. Now, in order to specify another file, go to Edit--Links--Modify--Select another csv file. It accepts the new file.

Current behavior:
Upon clicking "update" button, the data DOES NOT get updated.

Expected behavior:
The data from new csv file should get updated in the sheet.
              
Operating System: All
Version: 4.0.4.2 release

Hi Vineet, thanks for reporting.

Reproducible with:
Win7x64Ultimate
Version 4.0.5.2 (Build ID: 5464147a081647a250913f19c0715bca595af2f)
Version: 4.2.0.0.alpha0+ Build ID: 164b6ce7b27c0a9ec19019e7b078b9f8f382007d
         TinderBox: Win-x86@39, Branch:master, Time: 2013-09-28_16:39:42

Not Reproducible with:
Version 3.5.7.2

Confirmed the issue with reported steps.

When saving the file and reopen the new link it is not saved, the old remain.

The main issue is you need to create a new link which is always in a new sheet, what forces to rebuild the dependent references in the spreadsheet, even in other spreadsheets.
