Removing linked info

Office 2001

I have a "master" file wherein two worksheets are linked so that when I
change a number in Work*** A within the document, the information also
changes automatically in Work*** B.

>From Work*** B, I have created Work*** C which is basically the same
information as Work*** B, but I do not want the information on
Work*** C to automatically change.

IF file Work*** C is unopened, upon opening it I am given an alert
that it contains linked info and do I want to update it? I say no and
life is swell.

If file Work*** C is open at the same time as the "master" file and I
make a change to that file, the info on Work*** C changes.

Is there a fast way to remove the links? Or must I do it one at a time?
I'm not finding it in the Help file -- may not be looking in the right
place. When I go to Edit -> Links, the Automatic update button is
selected and the Manual update button is greyed out and not functioning.

Thanks for your patience; I await your advise.
