I have a report that uses Power Query to compile information, but then I need to add that information into a master sheet in another workbook for tracking changes over time. The problem is that when I just copy+paste, I have to go into the Data Connections and remove the queries it brought over from the other sheet, or I paste only the values, then convert to table, rename, etc. Either way there are extra steps. Is there a way to disable queries from being pasted from other workbooks? I use a Power query for my master sheet as well, so disabling that altogether isn't an option.
