Default Problems with linked tables becoming corrupt

Hi All,

This is my first post here so apologies if this has already been answered (but I can't seem to find an answer anywhere).

I have a word document (word 2013) with a lot of tables linked from excel (excel 2013) - tables have manual update and formatting preserved. This is a file that gets 'rolled forward' periodically, and on the last roll forward the links all appear to be corrupted.

I can relink all of them to the latest excel file, and while the document is open they work fine, but as soon as it is saved and closed they become corrupted again, and need to be relinked when the word document is opened again.

Has anyone else come across this issue? Any ideas how to fix? Its clearly a bit of a pain having to relink the files every time I open the file, and as the document is over 100 pages long, with 70-80 linked tables, I don't want to start again from scratch if I can avoid it...
