I have a sheet in a workbook (Excel 2010) that has a Web Query. The sheet/workbook is updated periodically using some VBA Code (ActiveWorkbook.RefreshAll).

Issue is when the Web Query is being updated, the Query 'steals' focus from whatever I happen to be doing, i.e., composing an email, scrolling through a Google Search, etc.

I've tried various screen updating=false, setting various events to false. Nothing seems to keep the Web Query from taking over focus.

I seem to remember that this was not an issue with Office versions before 2010.

Any assistance would be appreciated.
