My worksheet contains query which I can easily refresh by right-clicking and choosing refresh.


However, I want to remove the values on the worksheet without removing the query.


If I did that manually, a message pops up asking if I want to remove the query as well, so that if I choose no, the values on the worksheet are removed but I can still right-click to refresh my query.


How can I remove the data on the worksheet using code, yet still preserve the query?


I recorded a macro (and the message box popped up) and it showed this:


Code:
Cell.Select

Selction.ClearContents


but running the code ,no message box popped up and it removed the query.


Thanks
