Either a bug or 2 very related bugs here, behaviour tested in OOo X11 2.1, 2.1 
, and winxx 2.2:

1) Create 2 spreadsheet docs test1 & test2, enter values and save each.
2) Creat a cell reference link in test1 with the source cell in test2. Save 
both docs again.
3) Update the contents of the source cell in test2 and save test2.
There's no way to update the contents of the target (linked) cell in test1, 
short of deleting the formula 
and re-establishing the link again (and sometimes the new cell link will still 
show the OLD value from 
test2 as its new value). F9 and Tools-Cell Contents-Recalculate do nothing. On 
closing both docs and 
re-opening them, opening test1 brings up an alert giving you the option to 
update cell references from 
other docs, but it doesn't actually update the value. (Incidentally, this alert 
comes up even after you 
delete the cross-doc cell reference - presumably if the reference is saved in 
edit history or something - 
so it offers to update cell references that are no longer in the current 
spreadsheet!)

The side-issue possible 2nd bug here is that sometimes if in (1) you then edit 
the values in test2 and 
re-save the doc, on performing (2) you get the old pre-edit cell value from 
test2 instead of the current 
value when you first set up the reference link.
