Drill linking enables you to navigate to other documents by double-clicking cells with replaced links.
It is important to distinguish drilling from drill linking. Drilling navigates along the lines of the dimensional hierarchy. Linking passes the current member selection to other documents and executables.
Linking differs from LROs in that linking passes the current member selection. LROs are linked to cell notes, file attachments, and URLs.
To access the Drill Link Options dialog box, right-click and select Drill, then Drill Link Options.
