I have a very simple piece of VBA which sets some slicers, refreshes a connection and puts a message on the status bar, but I have noticed one message doesn't go away.

This connection is not critical to the running of the spreadsheet as it just gives an overview when required - usually on by me.
however, I would like it to disappear when the refresh is complete but can see no way of doing this - it just stays resident on the status bar.

VBA Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_PivotTableUpdate(ByVal Target As PivotTable)
On Error Resume Next
Dim sc1 As SlicerCache
Dim sc2 As SlicerCache
Dim SI1 As SlicerItem

' These names come from Slicer Settings dialog box
Set sc1 = ThisWorkbook.SlicerCaches("Slicer_Sales_Office")
Set sc2 = ThisWorkbook.SlicerCaches("Slicer_Customer_Region_Name")
    
sc2.ClearManualFilter

For Each SI1 In sc1.SlicerItems
sc2.SlicerItems(SI1.Name).Selected = SI1.Selected
Next SI1

Application.StatusBar = "Calculating workbook..."
Calculate

Columns("F:F").ColumnWidth = 4

Application.StatusBar = "Refreshing Data..."
ActiveWorkbook.Connections("Query - Dataset").Refresh
[B][COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)]'What can I here to make the message go away when the refresh has completed?[/COLOR][/B]

End Sub
 

Excel Facts

What is the last column in Excel?
Excel columns run from A to Z, AA to AZ, AAA to XFD. The last column is XFD.
Like so:
Code:
Application.StatusBar = "Refreshing Data..."
ActiveWorkbook.Connections("Query - Dataset").Refresh False
Application.StatusBar = False

Hmm didn't like the False after the ActiveWorkbook line
But not to worry Application.StatusBar = False does work
