Does anyone know how to stop the refresh query table to constantly refreshing and only refresh itself once. he constant refresh, is making my excel spreadsheet run slow.
With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:= _
"URL;" & FilePath, _
Destination:=temp.Range("A1"))
.Name = "Deloitte_2013_08"
' .CommandType = 0
.FieldNames = True
.RowNumbers = False
.FillAdjacentFormulas = False
.PreserveFormatting = True
.RefreshOnFileOpen = False
.BackgroundQuery = True
.RefreshStyle = xlInsertDeleteCells
.SavePassword = False
.SaveData = True
.AdjustColumnWidth = True
.RefreshPeriod = 0
.WebSelectionType = xlEntirePage
.WebFormatting = xlWebFormattingNone
.WebPreFormattedTextToColumns = True
.WebConsecutiveDelimitersAsOne = True
.WebSingleBlockTextImport = False
.WebDisableDateRecognition = False
.WebDisableRedirections = False
.Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False
End With
Change this line:
.BackgroundQuery = True
to:
.BackgroundQuery = False
Use Application.ScreenUpdating to wrap your code.
application.screenupdating = false
With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:= _
"URL;" & FilePath, _
Destination:=temp.Range("A1"))
.Name = "Deloitte_2013_08"
' .CommandType = 0
.FieldNames = True
.RowNumbers = False
.FillAdjacentFormulas = False
.PreserveFormatting = True
.RefreshOnFileOpen = False
.BackgroundQuery = True
.RefreshStyle = xlInsertDeleteCells
.SavePassword = False
.SaveData = True
.AdjustColumnWidth = True
.RefreshPeriod = 0
.WebSelectionType = xlEntirePage
.WebFormatting = xlWebFormattingNone
.WebPreFormattedTextToColumns = True
.WebConsecutiveDelimitersAsOne = True
.WebSingleBlockTextImport = False
.WebDisableDateRecognition = False
.WebDisableRedirections = False
.Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False
End With
application.screenupdating = true
You might also be interested in setting Application.Calculation to xlCalculationManual before a large operation and then setting it to xlCalculationAutomatic after you are done.

Below is the piece of code I am using:
Set IE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
With IE
.Visible = True
.Navigate "https:......"
Do Until .ReadyState = 4
DoEvents
Loop
.document.all.Item("sso_username").Value = "username"
.document.all.Item("ssopassword").Value = "password"
.document.forms(1).submit

Can anybody let me know what i am missing out?

OK, I don't know how much programming background you have, and I also don't know what parts of the code you posted are specific to that one source url and target location.
But, something like this might work. I made the assumption that the url, the destination, and the name would change for each page you wanted to pull from.
What I did was take the part of the code that looked like it would be true for all of the source pages and destinations, and put that in its own parameterized subroutine. The original routine IndexData just specifies the URL and the destination, and the name, for each copy operation.
Sub IndexData()
GetData("http://recorder.maricopa.gov/recdocdata/GetRecDataDetail.aspx?rec=19770000007" , _
"$A$1", _
"rec=19770000006")
GetData("http://somewhereelse.com/somedata.aspx?rec=12345", _
"$A$2", _
"rec=12345")
GetData("http://anotherurl.com/etc", _
"$A$3", _
"something")
End
Sub GetData(url as string, destination as string, name as string)
With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:= _
"URL;" & url , Destination:=Range(destination))
.Name = name
.FieldNames = True
.RowNumbers = False
.FillAdjacentFormulas = False
.PreserveFormatting = True
.RefreshOnFileOpen = False
.BackgroundQuery = True
.RefreshStyle = xlInsertDeleteCells
.SavePassword = False
.SaveData = True
.AdjustColumnWidth = True
.RefreshPeriod = 0
.WebSelectionType = xlSpecifiedTables
.WebFormatting = xlWebFormattingNone
.WebTables = "2,3"
.WebPreFormattedTextToColumns = True
.WebConsecutiveDelimitersAsOne = True
.WebSingleBlockTextImport = False
.WebDisableDateRecognition = False
.WebDisableRedirections = False
.Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False
End With
End Sub
I have the following two pieces of code for extracting a large table from a web service, one for a URL connection:
With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:="URL;" & URL, Destination:=Cells(1,1))
.PostText = ""
.RowNumbers = False
.FillAdjacentFormulas = False
.PreserveFormatting = True
.RefreshOnFileOpen = False
.BackgroundQuery = False
.RefreshStyle = xlOverwriteCells
.SavePassword = False
.AdjustColumnWidth = False
.RefreshPeriod = 0
.WebSelectionType = xlEntirePage
.WebFormatting = xlWebFormattingNone
.WebPreFormattedTextToColumns = True
.WebConsecutiveDelimitersAsOne = False
.WebSingleBlockTextImport = True
.WebDisableDateRecognition = False
.WebDisableRedirections = False
.Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False
.WorkbookConnection.Delete
End With
And one for a TEXT connection:
With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:="TEXT;" & URL, Destination:=Cells(1,1))
.FieldNames = True
.RowNumbers = False
.FillAdjacentFormulas = False
.PreserveFormatting = True
.RefreshOnFileOpen = False
.RefreshStyle = xlOverwriteCells
.SavePassword = False
.SaveData = True
.AdjustColumnWidth = False
.RefreshPeriod = 0
.TextFilePromptOnRefresh = False
.TextFilePlatform = 850
.TextFileStartRow = 1
.TextFileParseType = xlDelimited
.TextFileTextQualifier = xlTextQualifierDoubleQuote
.TextFileConsecutiveDelimiter = False
.TextFileTabDelimiter = True
.TextFileSemicolonDelimiter = False
.TextFileCommaDelimiter = False
.TextFileSpaceDelimiter = False
.TextFileColumnDataTypes = Array(1, 1, 1, 1)
.TextFileTrailingMinusNumbers = True
.Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False
.WorkbookConnection.Delete
End With
Because I sometimes need to send parameters to the web service (either by PostText or in a long URL) the URL connection is more suitable for my purposes. However, for the same data set from the same web service (no parameters in this case), the refresh consistently takes 21 seconds with the URL connection, and only 12 seconds with the TEXT connection.
Is there a reason why the TEXT connection is so much faster? And is there anything I can do about the relative slowness of the URL connection?
I recorded a macro and edited it. It scrapes particular data from webpages (found on links) and display them on separate pages.
I want to use the data (VLOOKUP) but the data is on different pages which makes it hard to get an accurate formula.
Every week I change the second line of the code
For x = 1 To 20
to
For x = 21 to ....
for example, because new links/data come out every week.
How do I find the last line to add the next lot of data below that?
Sub Update()
For x = 1 To 20
Worksheets("Links").Select
Worksheets("Links").Activate
mystr = Cells(x, 8)
mystr2 = Cells(x, 15)
Worksheets.Add(After:=Worksheets(Worksheets.Count)).Name = x
With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:=mystr, Destination:=Range("$K$1"))
.Name = "report2_1"
.FieldNames = True
.RowNumbers = False
.FillAdjacentFormulas = False
.PreserveFormatting = True
.RefreshOnFileOpen = False
.BackgroundQuery = True
.RefreshStyle = xlInsertDeleteCells
.SavePassword = False
.SaveData = True
.AdjustColumnWidth = True
.RefreshPeriod = 0
.WebSelectionType = xlAllTables
.WebFormatting = xlWebFormattingNone
.WebPreFormattedTextToColumns = True
.WebConsecutiveDelimitersAsOne = True
.WebSingleBlockTextImport = False
.WebDisableDateRecognition = False
.WebDisableRedirections = False
.Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False
End With
Range("A1").Select
With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:=mystr2, Destination:=Range("$A$1"))
.Name = "report6_1"
.FieldNames = True
.RowNumbers = False
.FillAdjacentFormulas = False
.PreserveFormatting = True
.RefreshOnFileOpen = False
.BackgroundQuery = True
.RefreshStyle = xlInsertDeleteCells
.SavePassword = False
.SaveData = True
.AdjustColumnWidth = True
.RefreshPeriod = 0
.WebSelectionType = xlAllTables
.WebFormatting = xlWebFormattingNone
.WebPreFormattedTextToColumns = True
.WebConsecutiveDelimitersAsOne = True
.WebSingleBlockTextImport = False
.WebDisableDateRecognition = False
.WebDisableRedirections = False
.Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False
End With
Next x
End Sub
instead of
for x = 1 to 20
do
for x = Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row to Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row-20 step -1
which will find the last cell used in Column A and subtract 20 rows from it and iterate backwars
I need to access the Selection.ListObject.QueryTable object in order to preserve the column width.
The code is as follows:
Range("B9").Select()
With Selection.ListObject.QueryTable
.RowNumbers = False
.FillAdjacentFormulas = False
.PreserveFormatting = True
.RefreshOnFileOpen = False
.BackgroundQuery = True
.RefreshStyle = xlInsertDeleteCells
.SavePassword = False
.SaveData = True
.AdjustColumnWidth = False
.RefreshPeriod = 0
.PreserveColumnInfo = True
End With
What is the VB.Net version of this Excel-generated VBA code?
What about something like this?
Dim excelApp AS Object = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
excelApp.Workbooks.Open(Filename:=_file)
With excelApp.ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets(0).Cells(9, 2).QueryTable
.RowNumbers = False
.FillAdjacentFormulas = False
.PreserveFormatting = True
.RefreshOnFileOpen = False
.BackgroundQuery = True
.RefreshStyle = 1
.SavePassword = False
.SaveData = True
.AdjustColumnWidth = False
.RefreshPeriod = 0
.PreserveColumnInfo = True
End With
where _file is the name of your Excel file.
