query only once

[trizub]

I am importing data from an external source, database query. When I
"edit query" (not represented graphically), and then edit the sql,
after clicking ok, microsoft query runs the query and displays the
results in the microsoft query screen. Then when I click on "return
data", it runs the query again! How do I make it not run the query
after editing the sql and only when I return data?

I haven't had this problem since I always do it with a macro. If you do this
often, just record a macro and then edit the macro to make the edit a
variable reference to a cell or an input box or ?
