    It seems odd that so many people are having trouble with this.

    you have to follow as certain process to delete the link. Not many know the correct way to do it. if not done right an error occurs and kind of binds the data link to the drawing. The DATALINK started with 2008. They may have worked out the process better for 2010.

    You're all welcome, never thought this would get so much attention. It wasn't even started for this reason

    Welcome to AUGI & congrats on your first post. Sorry for only coming back about this now . Could you possibly copy the text screen dump into a post (or is that it)? Also, what version / vertical are you using?

    It's a bit difficult "debugging" remotely

    Still searching for a way to remove the links...
    The routine does work in 2010. As stated make make sure that the file with the lsp file are included in your support folders under "options".
    Great routine. Use data extraction all the time, and have had this problem for ages.
    Thanks a lot.

    Does anyone know a way to 'DETACH' (not remove) EXCEL links from multiple tables at the same time? I have drawings with over 30 tables and it takes forever to click on each table to detach links one by one. Thanks!

    the routine works at last!
    i've tried it for 4 or 5 times but got error quit / abort message.
    this was because i forgot to include the lsp file on my search path.
    im using AutoCad 2009...
    thanks for the code irneb!

    Thanks for the link Vladimir. Of all the solutions offered this is the only one that worked for our office. Using Autocad Architecture 2010, version 2. That damn thing was like a virus. It even got into some xref'd background drawings.
