Hi, My excel with automatically updating share prices stopped working yesterday. I thought it was a blip, but still not working today. I'm getting the following message: 'COULDN'T REFRESH DA...
This is an ongoing problem. See if you can refresh the quotes in the online (browser) version of Excel in Microsoft Edge.

- Thank you for responding, I have the same issue. Talked with a microsoft tech, he said there is a "bug" and people are working on it.
I hate to be a pain, but could you please explain, set by step, how to access the online version of Excel in Microsoft Edge? Thank you much, I owe you a beer.I have my files saved on One Drive. If you go to One Drive on the web you can access all your files including Excel files. Just click on the file you want to use and it will open on the web based version of Excel. In the web version of Excel the stockhistory function is working and any changes you make on your files can be downloaded to your computer. This will not solve the problem on the computer based version of Excel but at least you can get the information you want. meeee725
- thank you
- I THINK you have to be using MS OneDrive to backup your Excel worksheets. If so, then go to https://www.office.com/launch/excel?ui=en-US&rs=US&auth=1 and select the spreadsheet you want to open. It will look and act essentially the same as the app. Do a data refresh from the browser and then look at the app and confirm that it refreshed there too.
- thank you. If interested, GENI announced a 5-year contract with the National Football League (NFL), option traders are very active, and a buy-the-stock/write-the-call-option play looks inviting (the Oct. $7.50 calls). I took a small position. It could be a pump-and-dump thing, so no guarantees.
- HI Hans, that seems to work. I guess I will need to work like this until Microsoft resolve the issue.
Many thanks for your help.
