Trace Precedents /dependents in another sheet

Dear Experts

Im using Excel 2007
Im attempting to audit a sheet where the formula are in one sheet and the
totals are in another.
When using either the Trace Precedents or dependents function , all I get is
an arrow pointing to a worksheet icon without any info on the cell ref of
the formula or the dependent (depending on which way I run it) Is there any
way of getting this info if the data is on two separate sheets or files.

Thanks

Sam

Re: Trace Precedents /dependents in another sheet

In xl2003, one could just double click on the dotted line which leads
to/from the little sheet icon. This would surface a "Go To" dialog revealing
the precedents/dependents. Maybe it works the same way in your xl2007?
