Macro to open "edit query".

[hatrickx]

Hello everyone,

This is my first post so hopefully it goes well!

I am trying to work out how to have a macro automate the process of:

Toolbar -> DATA

Data -> CONNECTIONS

Workbook Connections -> select "PROPERTIES... " side tab for a specific connection (always the same one)

Connection Properties -> select "DEFINITION" tab

Definition -> select "EDIT QUERY" tab at the bottom.


It's a long process that I keep having to repeat and am really struggling to find a way to speed it up.

Thank you for any ideas.

If you link this to a shortcut key, you should get a very rapid route to the edit query screen.
