Thank you for your response!

This seemed to have worked, but whenever I update the main file the others do not seem to update the edited fields. Therefore, when I check one questionnaire or complete a field, the completed field does not transfer to the others.

Another problem this method may have is that it may not work when moved to another folder or computer. The links need to work when the main file is moved from "C:\Users\XX\Documents\WORK STATION\Personal Work\Audit Folder" to "C:\Users\YY\Documents\Desktop\Audit Folder".

EDIT: They do update if I manually do so, which kind of beats the purpose - I need to know the file will automatically update for whoever opens it, instantly, without the need of special guidance.
