Default Downloading stock data

This doesn't look right

.Refresh BackgroundQuery:=True

Comment out BackgroundQuery:=True

Unless you need the query to always constantly update in the background
include
.Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False

Help,

The follow code runs great in Windows 2000 and Excel 2000. I can download
data for over 3000 stocks in less than 3 seconds. But it doesn't run at
all
in Vista 64 bit and Excel 2007. It errors out
in the " .Refresh BackgroundQuery:=True " line with a "Run time error 1004
An unexpected error has occurred" message. I wasn't expected it, so I
guess
it really is unexpected!

CODE
Set AllStockDataWorksheet = Workbooks(1).Worksheets(2)
Set AllStockDataResults = AllStockDataWorksheet.QueryTables _
.Add(Connection:="URL;http://finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=" &
Left(SymbolString, Len(SymbolString) - 1) & "&f=l1va2&e=.csv", _
Destination:=AllStockDataWorksheet.Cells(RowNumber , 51))

With AllStockDataResults
.Refresh BackgroundQuery:=True
End With

Any help will be appreciated.

Duane
