I have the following macro below. Where file does not exist, the data to be cleared in active sheet from A19:AA100



Code:
Sub DataRefresh()

    Application.DisplayAlerts = False
           
   Range("E14").Select
        Selection.QueryTable.Refresh BackgroundQuery:=True
    Range("G19").Select

       
        Application.DisplayAlerts = True
 

End Sub


The Macro below to clear the data and combined with above macro (possibly a message box could be incorporated and if file does not exits, then range A19:AA100 on active sheet to be cleared)

Code:
 Sub Clear_Data ()
Range(A19:AA100).clearcontents
end sub



Your assistance regarding the above is most appreciated
