Here's the code that works fine. However, I want to change the internet address and use a string variable. I cannot find a way to substitute.


ActiveWorkbook.Queries.Add Name:="Table 0", Formula:= _
"let" & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & " Source = Web.Page(Web.Contents(""Inmate Population Information Detail""))," & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & " Data0 = Source{0}[Data]," & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & " #""Changed Type"" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Data0,{{""Column1"", type text}, {""Column2"", type text}})" & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "in" & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & " #""Changed Type"""
Sheets.Add After:=ActiveSheet
With ActiveSheet.ListObjects.Add(SourceType:=0, Source:= _
"OLEDB;Provider=Microsoft.Mashup.OleDb.1;Data Source=$Workbook$;Location=""Table 0"";Extended Properties=""""" _
, Destination:=Range("$A$1")).QueryTable
.CommandType = xlCmdSql
.CommandText = Array("SELECT * FROM [Table 0]")
.RowNumbers = False
.FillAdjacentFormulas = False
.PreserveFormatting = True
.RefreshOnFileOpen = False
.BackgroundQuery = True
.RefreshStyle = xlInsertDeleteCells
.SavePassword = False
.SaveData = True
.AdjustColumnWidth = True
.RefreshPeriod = 0
.PreserveColumnInfo = False
.ListObject.DisplayName = "Table_0"
.Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False
End With
Selection.ListObject.QueryTable.Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False
ActiveSheet.Name = "querysheet"
 

Excel Facts

Square and cube roots
The =SQRT(25) is a square root. For a cube root, use =125^(1/3). For a fourth root, use =625^(1/4).
The problem seems to stem from the double quotes. What I'd like to do is build a string based on a list to change this web address to pull the results from different people. No matter what I do, I can't seem to make it work where I can substitute a new web address for the ""Inmate Population Detail"".
