    Refreshing External Web Data Exactly on Minute

    I was looking for some help on creating refresh code on external web data exactly on the minute Ex. 8:00:00 am, 8:01:00am, etc....

    I know how to import the data, but can't get the refresh time to systematically refresh on the :00 sec.

    Thanks.

    Hello Inwalkedbud,

    You can set the refresh rate to 1 minute, but as to controlling it down to the second may not be possible. I am not a DDE expert, but I would have to say probably no you can't. DDE is asynchronous. The Excel client sends a Windows message to the server and carries on processing. Windows holds the message and sends it to the server when the server is ready to process it.

    Sincerely,
    Leith Ross
