So I'm connecting to our database via the "From Microsoft Query" option in Excel
I run my query and it works great, I can even refresh and new records will be added accurately
Problem is, after I close and reopen the file, I'm no longer able to refresh. The refresh button is still there and I'm able to push it, but it does nothing. I've tried right clicking on my table, hitting Table > Edit Query and that button does nothing also. I can see my query under Connection Properties > Definition tab and it's correct. The connection string and command text is accurate, but it's not refreshing. I'm running Crystal Reports simultaneously and I can see the new data when I refresh in Crystal, but not in Excel. Basically, I have to start the query from scratch and only then will the new up to date info show up. It's strange because if I don't close the file, I'm able to refresh perfectly, just not after I reopen it
Anyone have a clue as to what I'm doing wrong? Thanks in advance
