Download Selected Rows in a Table
Use Download Selected Rows when you want to refresh only specific rows that are already in a table.
This helps when you need updated values for a few rows and do not want to re-download the full table.
When to Use Download Selected Rows
Use Download Selected Rows when:
- the rows are already in the worksheet table
- you only need to refresh some rows
- you want a faster targeted refresh
Use Download Data when:
- you want to refresh the whole table
- you need to bring in rows that are not currently in the worksheet
Refresh Selected Rows
The Download Data split button includes the Download Selected Rows command.

- In the table, select one or more cells in the rows that you want to refresh.
- On the Oracle Visual Builder ribbon, open the Download Data split button.
- Click Download Selected Rows.
- If you see a warning about pending changes, choose whether to continue.
- When the refresh finishes, review the Status column and Status Viewer.
Understand the Result
After refresh, selected rows can show:
- Download Succeeded: The row was refreshed successfully.
- Download Failed: The row could not be refreshed. Check Status Viewer for details.
- Download Skipped: The row was intentionally skipped; for example, if it is a new unsaved row.
Important Behavior
- The command refreshes rows only in the currently active table.
- In Form-over-Table layouts, this applies to the table section (not the form section).
- If a filter is active, only visible selected rows are refreshed.
- The command refreshes existing rows only; it does not add new rows.
If the Command Is Unavailable or Nothing Refreshes
If Download Selected Rows is disabled or you see a no-rows-selected message:
- Make sure your selection is inside table data rows.
- In a Form-over-Table layout, make sure the form contains a current parent item. The command is unavailable when the form is empty.
- Avoid selecting entire worksheet columns.
- If needed, use Download Data for a full refresh.
