Web query time out problem
 

Hi,

I have a workbook with around 350 sheets each with a web query in. If I
try to update all, about a half of the sheets will successfully update
before the message 'www..... The access to this internet site has
exceeded the allotted time'.

Can anyone suggest a workaround? For example would it be possible to
update the web queries in batches of 100?

Thanks,

Bertie

Web query time out problem
 

Hi there,

Yes, it can be coded. I've done a similar thing before at ExpertsExchange,
although that was to requery after a set amount of time if the remote site
dropped. This could certainly be changed to run the query for 100 sheets at
a time, though.

If you'd like to do it yourself, you may find the EE thread helpful:

If you'd like to have it done for you, however, please feel free to contact
me for a quote through www.excelguru.ca or www.myexpertsonline.com.
Alternately, you can private message me at www.officearticles.com under the

Cheers,
