I have created auto links between 2 files in WIN XP. I am using MS Office 97 but my OS is WIN XP. Any changed to the source file does not change the result in the link file.

What happen. Links within the same file is ok but not between files. Have check that the links setting is set to automatic and recalculation is also set to auto.
What else could go wrong. Has the version of MS Office has anything to do with it?

It has always been my understanding that Office 97 is not compatible with XP. Lots of horror stories about the way it runs and it is a real problem to uninstall. You may want to consider upgrading your Office version. Office 2000 or Office XP work fine in XP.
