Is there any way to link or merge several excel files so information can be input once?

I work with several excel files and have to input the same information to each file. Any way to merge or link them so I can input into a "master file" that will populate into the rest of the files?

Thank you,
Tabby

Yes you can just use the "=" sign in a cell and reference a cell in the other document. The easiest way is to have both open and just put "=" into the cell, then go to the other spreadsheet and click on the cell. Hit enter and you're done.
