Refreshing Data

You can retrieve and refresh data for the current sheet in the workbook.

Refreshing applies to entire sheets, and includes data in all ad hoc grids and reporting objects, such as function grids, tables, or charts.

Notes about Refreshing

  • On ad hoc sheets, Excel filters are retained after refreshing.
  • Selected POV members are reverted to dimension members after deleting some columns and refreshing a sheet. To avoid this, click the POV button to hide the POV dimensions, and ensure that you do not delete the column that contains the Page members.
