Hello

I've written a simple macro to open other workbooks. The workbooks are set to refresh data connections to an Access database when they are opened. They do it when I open them manually but not when I run this macro. Can anyone see what the problem is?

Thank you

VBA Code:
Sub OpenDataSheets()

    Workbooks.Open "E:\Documents\Excel Analysis\BaAnalytics.xlsm"
    Workbooks.Open "E:\Documents\Excel Analysis\BoAnalytics.xlsm"
    Workbooks.Open "E:\Documents\Excel Analysis\GrAnalytics.xlsm"
    
End Sub

How can you automate Excel?
Press Alt+F11 from Windows Excel to open the Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) editor.
I don't know. This is just a stab in the dark.

VBA Code:
Sub OpenDataSheets()

    Workbooks.Open("E:\Documents\Excel Analysis\BaAnalytics.xlsm").RefreshAll
    Workbooks.Open("E:\Documents\Excel Analysis\BoAnalytics.xlsm").RefreshAll
    Workbooks.Open("E:\Documents\Excel Analysis\GrAnalytics.xlsm").RefreshAll
    
End Sub
