Refreshing Data Connections in Excel 2010 VBA - vba

Question

So I have all of my VBA code down and it seems to be right, but it just is not refreshing the workbooks. The only thing that I can think of is when I open up the sheets I have to enable editting, so would I need to add something to my code?
Edit: I am running this through a VBScript
Public wb As Workbook
Sub executeUpdate()
`some code
openBook path & testArray(i) & ext, True
saveBookAs path & testArray(i)
End Sub
Sub openBook(ByVal fileName As String, ByVal refresh As Boolean)
Set wb = Workbooks.Open(fileName, 0, False)
If refresh = True Then
wb.RefreshAll
End If
End Sub
Sub saveBookAs(ByVal fName As String)
wb.SaveAs fileName:=fName & "_posReport.xlsx"
End Sub

Answer 1

I found this code over here:
If Application.ProtectedViewWindows.Count > 0 Then
Application.ActiveProtectedViewWindow.Edit
End If
Have not tested it, but maybe it works for you.

code will bypass the need for the user to select the "Enable Editing" button on the message bar below the ribbon. One additional note [...] the code will error if the workbook isn't in "ProtectedView". So to avoid this the following code will only enable editing if the workbook has "ProtectedView" enabled.
