Hi All

I am trying to do a web query to obtain data from a table split across multiple web pages and then insert the data onto one sheet in Excel.

I have been unable to get this to work.

I get the following error on the Refresh.BackgroundQuery=False line - Run-time error '1004': Application-defined or object-defined error

The connection seems to be established in Excel and when I click on the query and then on edit I can see the data but it's not loaded into the sheet and the loop does not run

Below is my current effort

Your help will be highly appreciated!

Thanks

Dim p As Integer
Dim r As Integer
Dim l As Integer
Dim t As Integer
Dim WebString As String
Dim WebString2 As String
Dim WebSource As String


r = 1
l = 1
t = 2




For p = 1 To 352


WebString = "https://www.website.ashx?v=111&r=" & r
WebString2 = Chr(34) & WebString & Chr(34)
WebSource = "Source = Web.Page(Web.Contents(" & WebString2 & ")),"



ActiveWorkbook.Queries.Add Name:="Table" & t, Formula:= _
"let" & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & WebSource & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & " Data2 = Source{2}[Data]," & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & " #""Promoted Headers"" = Table.PromoteHeaders(Data2, [PromoteAllScalars=true])," & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & " #""Changed Type"" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#""Promoted Headers"",{{""No."", Int64.Type}, {""Ticker"", type text}, {""Company"", type text}, {""Sector" & _
""", type text}, {""Industry"", type text}, {""Country"", type text}, {""Market Cap"", type text}, {""P/E"", type text}, {""Price"", type number}, {""Change"", Percentage.Type}, {""Volume"", Int64.Type}})" & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "in" & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & " #""Changed Type"""


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

End With

r = r + 20
t = t + 1
l = l + 21


Next p
End Sub
