UPDATING LINKS ON OPENING?

When I open a workbook I am informed that the file contains external links
and whether I want to update or not? I have tried many times to:
1. Open the file without updating;
2. Break links by Edit > Links > Selecting the link and breaking the same;

The problem is that neither the link breaks/removes nor does such an
external file, as referred to in the break links dialogue box, abc.xls, is
found by Ctrl+F selecting the search for the whole workbook.

Thus, again leading to the same painful alert coming up every time I re-open
the same file.

What should I do?

Please help.

Thanx In Advance,

Best Regards,
