Default problem with excel refreshing Via macro

hello all

i have a master excel file that i wrote a macro that will open anther excel file
the second file has pivot tables and other tables link Via odbc to SQL server
the problem is that after i write "activeworkbook.refreshall
and then "activeworkbook.save " i recieved a msgbox from excel as following
"This action will cancel a pendingrefresh data command do u what to continue? yes /no.

i know how to disable the msgbox but it does not refresg the info if i press yes or no
the strange thing is ehn i run a local macro on the file it works

I think the problem happen when i do "activeworkbook.save

i looked up the excel help
"When I click the Refresh button, a message tells me that my macro changes will be lost
This message appears when you have made changes to a macro in the Visual Basic Editor and have also changed the copy of your workbook in the Microsoft Script Editor

To save the changes to your macro, do the following:
Click No
Switch to the Visual Basic Editor window
Export any modules you have changed.(how do i do it
In the workbook, click Refresh on the Refresh toolbar
Click Yes
Import the modules to restore the changes to your macro. .(how do i do it

please answer me ASAP

Thanks in advance
