Hi,

I've been using a web query on a site for awhile, with no issues. I use the query to go to a site and grab a table which is placed in an Excel worksheet and filtered for content.

Today when I went on the site through the query, it gives me a prompt "this site contains secure and insecure information, do you want to display the insecure information".

It had no such prompt in the past, the site has not changed to my knowledge.

The result is that I can not get the query to work any longer, I say yes to the prompt, to allow the insecure info but now when I click import- Excel returns with an error "unable to open https//:www.(my site here).com . Cannot download the information you requested." :oops:

Is this new? Is there a work around?

Thanks in advance for any assistance here. Much, much appreciate any and all help.
