Syntax

Use the QueryTable property of the ListObject to access the Refreshing property.

Example

This example displays a message box if there is a background query in progress for query table one.

With Worksheets(1).QueryTables(1) 
 If .Refreshing Then 
 MsgBox "Query is currently refreshing: please wait" 
 Else 
 .Refresh BackgroundQuery := False 
 .ResultRange.Select 
 End If 
End With
