Make my vba wait?
Hi all,
I have a VBA query which refreshes a workbook and then saves it, then it changes a particular cell value and then saves it somewhere else. Unfortunately, the first save hasn't finished before it changes the particular cell value, so the first save is incorrect. How can i make the vba understand i want it to wait until the previous line of code has finished before starting the next bit? Thanks Emma |

Hi
Put in DoEvents after the saves. Handy if you have anything updating the screen (e.g charts or cell values) within code. regards Paul On Jun 11, 12:15*pm, Emma Hope wrote: Hi all, I have a VBA query which refreshes a workbook and then saves it, then it changes a particular cell value and then saves it somewhere else.
