Dear all,
I desperately need help. I have been working on this Excel automation
from VB. The task involves launching a set of Excel Addins, workbooks,
printing them and shutting everything down. All my workbooks shut down
with the usual quitting the excel object and setting it nothing,
except this one workbook. This workbook doesnt let excel shutdown
keeps lurking in my Task Manager. I traced the reason to one line of
code

xlApp.Sheets("myfirst").QueryTables(1).Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False

when i comment this out every thing shuts down. but i need the queires
refreshed before i print. I looked at what people had suggested for
this problem and specifically defined objects for workbook, worksheet,
querytable and once i was done with them set them to nothing. That
didnt work. im certain im missing something. Please please

regards,
Anant

Sub Main()
Dim xlApp As Object
Dim myDate As Date
Set xlApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application")

xlApp.Visible = True
xlApp.DisplayAlerts = True
xlApp.Workbooks.Open ("D:\bin\mySheet.xls")
xlApp.Sheets("myfirst").QueryTables(1).Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False
xlApp.Sheets("mysecond").QueryTables(1).Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False
'xlApp.Application.ActiveWorkbook.PrintOut Copies:=1, Collate:=True

myDate = xlApp.Sheets("myfirst").Range("B12").Value
xlApp.Workbooks("JGBAnalytics.xls").Close True

xlApp.Quit
Set xlApp = Nothing
End Sub
