Hi,<br />
<br />
I am trying to refresh an OLE DB query with some code.<br />
<br />
I get the attached error whenever i run it my routine. The line of code it breaks on is<br />
<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp;Selection.QueryTable.Refre<wbr />sh BackgroundQuery:=False<br />
<br />
I can phsyically refresh it on the spreadsheet, just not in the code.<br />
<br />
Does anyone know why this is?<br />
<br />
Thanks<br />
Seamus<br />

I am trying to refresh an OLE DB query with some code.

I get the attached error whenever i run it my routine. The line of code it breaks on is

I can phsyically refresh it on the spreadsheet, just not in the code.

Does anyone know why this is?
