I have a file with four buttons to refresh specific queries in PQ in a certain order after certain things are accomplished each day. My original file works just fine. However when I save a copy with a new name, keeps the original name with the date on the end, the new file gives me an error saying the file is corrupt and to recover it.

This is what I see when the repair happens

Removed Part: /xl/vbaProject.bin part. (Visual Basic for Applications (VBA))

Repaired Records: Cell information from /xl/worksheets/sheet1.xml part

Repaired Records: Cell information from /xl/worksheets/sheet2.xml part

Repaired Records: Cell information from /xl/worksheets/sheet5.xml part

Repaired Records: Cell information from /xl/worksheets/sheet6.xml part

Repaired Records: Cell information from /xl/worksheets/sheet9.xml part

Repaired Records: Cell information from /xl/worksheets/sheet10.xml part


Below is an example of the code. Three buttons are exactly like this. the following code is the one that is slightly different.



Private Sub RefreshALL_Click()

Application.ScreenUpdating = False

ThisWorkbook.Connections("Query - Clerk Cheat Sheet").Refresh

ThisWorkbook.Connections("Query - Freight Report").Refresh

ThisWorkbook.Connections("Query - qry_bol_hdr_cans").Refresh

Application.ScreenUpdating = True

End Sub



Private Sub RefreshPSG_Click()

Application.ScreenUpdating = False

Range("B2") = Date

Range("tblRoutes[LOAD]").Select

Selection.ClearContents

Range("AD7:AF32").Select

Selection.ClearContents

Range("AD35:AF36").Select

Selection.ClearContents

Range("AF34").Select

Selection.ClearContents

ThisWorkbook.Connections("Query - qryPSG_detail").Refresh

ThisWorkbook.Connections("Query - tblRTKData").Refresh

Application.ScreenUpdating = True

End Sub

Currently I can save my historical file as an XLSX but I would like to be able to just save it to keep it simple for anyone coming in after me.
