Default XML Importing Problem

I'm attempting to import XML data onto a worksheet in Excel 2003. If I create
the VBA procedure and run it, it works just fine, as long as don't close down
the application. However, if I do close down Excel, re-open it, then attempt
to run my procedure, I get a run-time error: -2147217376 (80041020). The
description says, "A string literal was expected, but no opening quote
character was found."

The code line looks like this (with, of course, a valid address):
ActiveWorkbook.XmlImport URL:= "http://..._getCPdata?year=2009&&" _
, ImportMap:=Nothing, Overwrite:=True, Destination:=Range("$A$1")

I've run out of things to try - anyone have any clue as to what I can do?
