To break the links, record yourself doing a find and find next. Search for [ Put that in a loop. Insert in the code a copy, paste special value for that cell and then search for the next one. Eventually, the loop will end when it can't find [
Or if you are advanced enough in VBA you can use the specialcells property and next through them.
