I am working to refresh morningstar data in an excel 2016 file, and I found the following code online on the Morningstar VBA guide:

Code:
Public dTime As Date
Dim lNum As Long
Sub RunOnTime()
dTime = Sheet1.Cells(1, 1) 'change the cell reference here (Row #, Column #)
Application.OnTime dTime, "RunOnTime"
Set cmd = Application.CommandBars("Cell").Controls("Refresh All")
cmd.Execute
End Sub

The guide says that this will refresh the data at 10:01:00 AM everyday, what do I change do make this refresh at 9:00 AM everyday? Also, if it refreshes everything does the cell reference matter?

Thanks.
 

Excel Facts

Show numbers in thousands?
Use a custom number format of #,##0,K. Each comma after the final 0 will divide the displayed number by another thousand
The time that the macro will run is determined by this line
Code:
dTime = Sheet1.Cells(1, 1)

ie currently set to the value in cell A1 in the FIRST sheet in the workbook
Enter value 09:00 in that cell to make it run at that time

Using more intuitive notation ...with time value in cell D2 in sheet named Data ...
Code:
dTime = Sheets("[COLOR=#ff0000]Data[/COLOR]").Range("[COLOR=#ff0000]D2[/COLOR]")
