Hi all..
I have an issue as follows:-
I created an Excel file which uses 3 ODBC queries to pull data from Sage Accounts.
I (perhaps unwisely) set up a new DSN called 'WELTON',to use for this purpose and pointed it at the data folders.
However, I am now using the same report for a different customer and I want to use the standard Sage DSN (name is SageLine50v24)
I have changed the connection string in 'Connection Properties' for all three queries.
I have changed the 'Connection Name' also in 'Connection Properties' (from something like 'Table_Query_from_WELTON') to something generic, like 'Budget' for all three.
I have changed the 'Table Name' in 'Design View' for all three.
Everything works and data refreshes as expected.
However, if there is a problem connecting (which can happen with this customer), the final error message displayed after various password warnings etc is:-
"The following data range failed to refresh: Query from WELTON"
I would prefer customer2 not to see this as it relates to customer1. I suspect this is a Design View Table Name that has now been changed, and I am completely at a loss as to where this is still coming from and would be grateful for any suggestions please.
In case it makes a difference:-
I'm now using Excel 2016, but the problem existed in Excel 2010 as well. The OS is Windows7 64Bit.
