Enable Auto Refresh Of Web Queries When File Opened

Sep 22, 2006

I have a special use PC which will power a projector 24/7. When it reboots I want it to load Excel, open a spreadsheet, and then connect to the web to get data using web queries.

My problem is that I get a dialogue box each time the spreadsheet is opened: "Enable Automatic Refresh." I need to remotely reboot the PC from time-to-time so I can't click the button.

I have set my security levels to low and that does not help.

Import Data From Access Table To Pivot Table - Enable Auto Refresh

Feb 1, 2010

I have enable Refresh on Open for my excel pivot table, but user need to click "Enable Automatic Refresh" , only solution i came across is to change the registry setting. Which i dont have access to edit registry(admin disable the access).

Alternate solution i try to use Access macro to automate the process and use Outputto save it as a excel file A. Then use excel file B to update pivot table from excel file A.(as excel A data is always latest)
The problem is i will get "....A file name already exist...do you want to overwrite.." prompt.
Which defeat the automate process.

Any other solution to enable the automatic refresh on open the excel workbook?

Or Access can overwrite the exist file or save it as another file name with timestamp ?

Refresh Queries On Selected Sheets

Aug 4, 2009

I was wondering if there was a way to Refresh Queries on a sheet by sheet basis. I have several sheets of queries, and I would like to refresh all of them except one or two.

The only way I know how to do this is to stick a line of code for each query into the script while leaving out the queries I don't want. I was hoping there was a more elegant way to do it. If not, no big deal. I'll just do it the old fashioned way.

Web Queries Don't Refresh During Code Execution

Sep 9, 2006

I am writing a routine to retrieve multiple stock quotes by looping through a bunch of sheets and refreshing a bunch of querytables that access the web. My data source (Livecharts) is often clogged up and queries will fail or get lost in space so after initiating the queries I wait for a while using a waitable and then check to see if each query has completed or is still refreshing. If they are still refreshing I cancel them and refresh again. Or at least that was the plan. What I have discovered is that as long as the vba code is running the results from the queries do not come back into excel. As soon as the code is exited or I go into break mode in the debugger the queries complete.

Is there some way to get the queries to refresh during code execution? Here is a code snippet that shows what I am trying. I have defined a Class Module defining an "EventfulQTable" and it's associated methods and properties so I can have a QueryTable with events. The sub Wait uses the windows API SetWaiTable command to pause for a specified period of time. It includes a DoEvents command which I thought would allow the returning queries back into Excel but no such luck.

Sub Refresh_Queries()
Dim SheetNum As Integer, ListSheet As Integer
Dim eqtQT As New EventfulQTable
Dim QueriesDone As Boolean

SheetNum = 1
ListSheet = 12
QueriesDone = False

On Error Goto QueryError

When Query Refresh Its Say "Enable Automatic Refresh"

Jan 13, 2009

I've got a spreadsheet with a few queries to extract data into my sheet. Whenever I open the spreadsheet, I get a "query refresh" dialog box, asking if I want to "Enable automatic refresh". I keep clicking on the "Enable" button but I have to keep answering the question for each open. Isn't there a way to set "yean - ok - refresh the data" so that I don't have to keep saying "yes"?

Refresh All Queries On Workbook Open When Finished Print To PDF Then Close Workbook

Jan 23, 2014

I have data that daily needs to be refreshed and printed to pdf.

I figure the simplest way to do this would be to task schedule the workbook to open daily. Then on open it will refresh the data, print it after all data has been refreshed and close the workbook.

I set it up originally without the need to print so I have all the queries set to refresh when opening the file, however when I now try and put the code to print to pdf on the workbook open event it runs before the queries are finished running. (Query notes: queries were created through Microsoft query, and are accessing a MySQL database queries set to refresh when opening the file queries set to enable background refresh).

Import Text Dialogue/Wizard: Select File Once For Multiple Queries

Aug 7, 2006

I am importing a text file that has a lot more than 256 columns. The data will be updated weekly with a different text file. I know how to get past the 256 column limit when importing a text file like this. This link explains the method I am using to import the text file. [url] Since I am importing onto several sheets I get the dialogue box asking me to choose a file to import from for every sheet when I use RefreshAll. The same file that is used by the first sheet will be used by the rest of the sheets. Each sheet just imports a different section of columns from the text file. I want to avoid choosing the same file 30 plus times (once for each sheet) when I click refresh all. Is there a code that would allow me to choose the file for the first sheet, and the other sheets would follow suite?

I have a summary sheet that pulls data from several worksheets. I have a filter on column I that hides all rows that have zero values in that column. Once I protect the sheet I cannot get the filter to update as the source data changes. I have tried other macros from forums but I cannot get them to work. I would like the filter to update every time that the workbook is calculated.

Auto-Refresh AutoFilter With Sheet Protection On

Nov 23, 2008

I found one of your old VBA entries that allowed me to automatically refresh an autofilter function, and it works great.... with protection off.

As soon as I protect the sheet so users can't enter data into the pages showing the autofiltered data, the autofilter kicks off.

i have set the protection to allow autofiltering, so it's something that is preventing the macro (for automatically updating/refreshing the autofilter).

I'd love to either fix the macro to "autorefresh autofilter" with protection on, or just enter another code that will disable all functionality on the worksheet. (workbook is set up with multiple sheets, first sheet is for all data entry, subsequent sheets are filtered data-trying to make them viewable only).
