    Re: Force Sheet to refresh every XX minutes

    How about:

    In the ThisWorkbook code section:
    Private Sub Workbook_Open()
        PeriodicUpdate
    End Sub
    And in a standard module:
    Sub PeriodicUpdate()
       With Application
          .Calculate
          .OnTime Now + TimeValue("00:05:00"), "PeriodicUpdate"
       End With
    End Sub
    The .calculate should envoke a refresh. Please reply with results as this is untested.
    Perhaps it was the Noid who should have avoided me...
    If you are satisfied with my solution click the small star icon on the left. Thanks
    1. Make a copy of your workbook and run the following code on your copy (just in case)
    2. With excel open, press ALT+F11 to open the Visual Basic Editor (VBE). From the "Insert" menu, select "Module".
    3. Paste the code from above into the empty white space. Close the VBE.
    4. From the developer tab, choose "Macros", select the Sub Name, and click "Run".
