Hi
Is there a way I can auto run a macro that will import once in the morning and also delete the same table in the evening.
My company have disabled and will not authorise anyone to have Windows task scheduler on their profiles. At the minute I have an excel workbook that is dumped into a shared location via a scheduled output from business objects. Every time a user opens the database it imports the whole workbook (approx 15k records), as you can imagine that is ok when the first users opens it but when 3-5 try it dims the lights in the building. This data is non editable and comes from our asset management system so a macro to delete this table at a set time in the evening is also required.
All suggestions are very much appreciated, I know this sounds messy but without a scheduler I'm a bit stumped. I can't link the table either as it is excel and the db is multi user.
Thanks miff3436
