Hello Everyone,

I having difficulty in getting this code to execute smoothly. This is the "Update" portion of the code, where the excel report is opened from a SharePoint location, checked out, and then the data refresh performed including any Pivot Tables/Caches. I want the opened or updated Excel file to open in another window and the code executed to do as I stated. What I am finding is interruptions with the blanking out of the current workbook when going to the desired workbook. At times, the updated workbook will not show and the code doesn't wait for all the refreshes to be done.

VBA Code:
Sub Collect_Actions()
Dim strFile$
Dim ReportRow As Long, ReportCount As Long
Dim wb As Object


With ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1")
     ReportCount = .[a2].CurrentRegion.Rows.Count
End With

ReportRow = 2


Do While ReportRow <= ReportCount

Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.StatusBar = "Reviewing report " & ReportRow & " of " & ReportCount
    
' Set conditions for Update, Retire, and Renew

Select Case Cells(ReportRow, 11)

Case "Renew"
Application.StatusBar = Cells(ReportRow, 2) & "is currently undergoing " & Cells(ReportRow, 4) & "ing process..."
            If Cells(ReportRow, 5) <> "Inactive" Then
                 Application.Wait (Now + TimeValue("00:00:02"))
            Application.StatusBar = "Report " & Cells(ReportRow, 2) & " is already active."
            End If
            'Update log with Date, Time, Report, Error: Renew Task Not Completed, URL, Description:  Report is already active.
            Cells(ReportRow, 5) = "Active"
            Cells(ReportRow, 12) = "Request Complete"
            Cells(ReportRow, 13) = Format(Now, "mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm AM/PM")
Application.StatusBar = Cells(ReportRow, 2) & " has been renewed."

Case "Retire"
Application.StatusBar = Cells(ReportRow, 2) & "is currently undergoing the " & Cells(ReportRow, 4) & "process..."
            If Cells(ReportRow, 5) <> "Active" Then
            Application.Wait (Now + TimeValue("00:00:02"))
            Application.StatusBar = "Report " & Cells(ReportRow, 2) & " is an inactive report."
            End If
            'Write to Error Log Date, Time, Report, Error: Task Not Completed, URL, Description: This report is already retired.
            Cells(ReportRow, 5) = "Inactive"
            Cells(ReportRow, 12) = "Request Complete"
            Cells(ReportRow, 13) = Format(Now, "mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm AM/PM")
Application.StatusBar = Cells(ReportRow, 2) & " has been retired."


Case "Update"
Application.StatusBar = Cells(ReportRow, 2) & " is currently undergoing" & Cells(ReportRow, 4) & "ing process ..."
            If Cells(ReportRow, 5) <> "Active" Then
            Application.Wait (Now + TimeValue("00:00:02"))
            Application.StatusBar = "Report " & Cells(ReportRow, 2) & " is not an active report."
            ' Write this in error log
            End If
    ' Begin data refresh process
    
    Set wb = Workbooks.Open(ReportRow, 4)
    Workbooks.CheckOut Cells(ReportRow, 4)
    'Debug.Print "Opened"
    wb.RefreshAll
    'Debug.Print "Refresh started"
    wb.Application.CalculateUntilAsyncQueriesDone
    'Debug.Print "Ensured refresh completed with calculate"
    Application.DisplayAlerts = False 'Prevent message for saving as macro free workbook
    wb.CheckIn
    Application.DisplayAlerts = True
    'Debug.Print "Checked In"
     Cells(ReportRow, 12) = "Request Complete"
     Cells(ReportRow, 13) = Format(Now, "mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm AM/PM")
Application.StatusBar = Cells(ReportRow, 2) & " has been refresh."


End Select

ReportRow = ReportRow + 1

Loop

Application.ScreenUpdating = True

End Sub

Why can't spreadsheets drive cars? They crash too often!
The RefreshAll method is asynchonous. From Help: "Objects that have the BackgroundQuery property set to True are refreshed in the background."
So you must either set backgroundquery of all queries to false, or write your own code using the refresh method of each query and pivot cache. The Refresh methods have a BackgroundQuery argument.

Thank you for this response. I am not clear on what you mean here. Are you saying the other files that are to be opened should have the BackgroundQuery property set to False? How do I go back and forth between the two? Use of ThisWorkbook and create another instance of Excel for the other workbook?
