Default User prompt for data connection

I am testing a report that gathers data from two different files via data
connection. One is a text file and the other is a csv. Both populate data
in different worksheets. I have noticed that Excel (2007) does not have any
logic behind which one of these gets done first. This creates a huge problem
since the data is different depending on the file.

What I would like to do is to create a form (??) that would prompt the user
to select the "Data 1" file and then select the "Data 2" file. Once the
files are selected, then the data is refreshed correctly. Does anyone know
of a good way to accomplish this?

Thanks all!
