Hi All, I've used the macro recorder to record the loading of a power query to table and I'm curious if the last line of code is redundant?

Code:
    With Sheets("Temp").ListObjects.Add(SourceType:=0, Source:= _        "OLEDB;Provider=Microsoft.Mashup.OleDb.1;Data Source=$Workbook$;Location=DateCompleted;Extended Properties=""""" _
        , Destination:=Range("$A$1")).QueryTable
        .CommandType = xlCmdSql
        .CommandText = Array("SELECT * FROM [DateCompleted]")
        .RowNumbers = False
        .FillAdjacentFormulas = False
        .PreserveFormatting = True
        .RefreshOnFileOpen = False
        .BackgroundQuery = True
        .RefreshStyle = xlInsertDeleteCells
        .SavePassword = False
        .SaveData = True
        .AdjustColumnWidth = True
        .RefreshPeriod = 0
        .PreserveColumnInfo = False
        .ListObject.DisplayName = "DateCompleted"
        .Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False
    End With
    Selection.ListObject.QueryTable.Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False

It appears to me that the .Refresh BackgroundQuery property is set to False at the last line within the initial 'With' / 'End With' section, and the table appears to have loaded at End With, but then the recorder included a subsequent line
Code:
Selection.ListObject.QueryTable.Refresh BackgroundQuery:= False

This command appears to reload the table all over again effectively doubling how long it takes...? Is this line redundant? can it be removed?

Thanks,
Joe
