Goodmorning All I have a small dilemma and was looking for ideas on a work around. There is an Excel report that I have built on our shared drive. This report is based on a table created from a power query link into our company database. I have inserted a macro so that when the workbook is opened the connection to the database is refreshed so that the latest data is pulled in. The dilemma is that I use a windows based machine and this report is for my boss who is on a mac. Apparently Mac's do not support power query so this kicks of an error as 'the connection is not supported' Any ideas on how I can work round this and still achieve an automated solution?

Thank you Herbz. Not to worry RoryA, I have figured it out, many thanks. VBA code that I was using to update the links on opening when I was using PQ was: Private Sub Workbook_Open() ' Macro to update my Power Query script(s) Dim lTest As Long, cn As WorkbookConnection On Error Resume Next For Each cn In ThisWorkbook.Connections lTest = InStr(1, cn.OLEDBConnection.Connection, 'Provider=Microsoft.Mashup.OleDb.1', vbTextCompare) If Err.Number 0 Then Err.Clear Exit For End If If lTest > 0 Then cn.Refresh Next cn End Sub Would you be able to assist with an equivalent when using MS Query. Many many thanks.
