Symptoms:

Cause:
Data that is loaded into the analysis when saving will automatically be embedded in the file if you have calculated columns, even though you choose to use linked data.
Resolution:
There is a preference - CacheCalculatedColumnsDefaultBehavior - that can be used to disable embedding data when doing calculations.
1. Go to Tools menu->Administration Manager->Preferences
2. Select the group you want to apply this for and chose Application->Persistence and set CacheCalculatedColumnsDefaultBehavior to 'False'.
Note: Only Spotfire Administrators (i.e. users with both the TIBCO Spotfire Administrator license and membership in the Administrator group) can do this.
