Macros to Refresh Excel Plug-in formulas

These macros can be used to refresh Excel Plug-in formulas. They are as follows.

Refresh Selection
This macro refreshes selected range of cells in a worksheet.

Public Sub RefreshSelection()
Dim Refreshbutton As CommandBarButton
Set Refreshbutton =
Application.CommandBars.FindControl(Tag:="menurefreshdatacell")
Refreshbutton.Execute
End Sub

Refresh Worksheet
This macro is used to refresh a single worksheet in a workbook.

Public Sub RefreshWorksheet()
Dim Refreshbutton As CommandBarButton
Set Refreshbutton =
Application.CommandBars.FindControl(Tag:="menurefreshdatasheet")
Refreshbutton.Execute
End Sub

Refresh Workbook
This macro is used to refresh entire workbook.

Public Sub RefreshWorkbook()
Dim Refreshbutton As CommandBarButton
Set Refreshbutton =
Application.CommandBars.FindControl(Tag:="menurefreshdatabook")
Refreshbutton.Execute
End Sub

Double Refresh
This macro refreshes the entire workbook twice.

Public Sub RefreshWorkbook()
Dim Refreshbutton As CommandBarButton
Set Refreshbutton =
Application.CommandBars.FindControl(Tag:="menurefreshdatabook")
Refreshbutton.Execute
Refreshbutton.Execute
End Sub

CIQ SCREEN Refresh


Public Sub RefreshCIQScreen()
Dim Refreshbutton As CommandBarButton
Set Refreshbutton = Application.CommandBars.FindControl(Tag:="rcscreenrefresh")
Refreshbutton.Execute
End Sub


This macro refreshes CIQ SCREEN formulas of an active sheet. It finds
CIQSCREEN() formulas and refreshes them with an interval of 10 seconds
(default) between one CIQ SCREEN refresh and another. Initially this macro
refreshes the current worksheet.

Option Explicit
Dim AddressArray() As String
Dim Counter As Integer
Dim i As Integer, DummySec As Integer
'set time interval here in seconds between one CIQSCREEN refresh to another
Const RefreshIntervalSec As Integer = 10

Sub CiqScreenRefreshMain()

Application.StatusBar = "Capital IQ: Please wait..."

Dim CheckAddress As String, LastRow As Long, ColumnNo As Long, RowNo As Long
Dim CellsFound As Variant

Set CellsFound = Cells.Find(What:="CIQSCREEN", LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt:=xlPart)

If Not CellsFound Is Nothing Then
CheckAddress = CellsFound.Address
Counter = 0
Do
ColumnNo = CellsFound.Column
RowNo = CellsFound.Row
LastRow = Cells(65536, ColumnNo).End(xlUp).Row

If LastRow > RowNo Then
Range(Cells(RowNo + 1, ColumnNo).Address & ":" & _
Cells(LastRow, ColumnNo).Address).ClearContents
End If

Counter = Counter + 1
ReDim Preserve AddressArray(1 To Counter)
AddressArray(Counter) = Cells(RowNo, ColumnNo).Address
Set CellsFound = Cells.FindNext(CellsFound)

Loop While Not CellsFound Is Nothing And CellsFound.Address <> CheckAddress
End If

If Counter > 0 Then

End Sub



Macro to Unlink Excel Plug-in formulas

This macro can be used to unlink all types of Excel Plug-in formulas. It gives a choice to
the user to input criteria to unlink i.e., unlink a selected range of cells, a worksheet or an
entire workbook. After successful unlinking the macro allows the user to save a copy of
current workbook.
