edit web query

[Guest]

This was working a few days ago and now doesn't. When you try and Edit a Web
query the web query box pops up with the correct web address, but you get a
message ... "Navigation to the webpage was cancelled". The Web Query does
work as it is on automatic refresh in the background and pulls back the
correct data, I just can't edit it. I can run IE7 with the same address and
it works fine. I also cannot add a new web query as I only ever get the
default IE web page displayed.

the address is http://uk.finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=DGO.L&f=c1

Any ideas? I suspect an Windows automatic update has downloaded a "fix" and
broken it

If you like, send me a workbook with examples and I will take a look

I found a work around by bringing the value back as HTML not in a csv file.

Using

http://uk.finance.yahoo.com/d/?s=DGO.L&f=c1

instead of

http://uk.finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=DGO.L&f=c1

It must be a problem with opening a csv file from a web query, probably
something to do with security.

I've got the same problem.

The thing is it works on othe pc's but not on mine.

also cant edit it, old queries still work but cant add or edit new ones. it opens my results in wordpad when i click on edit query. the dialog box in the edit web query just says navigation to webpage was cancelled.

Any idees?
