    Thanks everyone for the help. Nothing I was trying would work. I belive I did find the solution though. I had compiled a lot of files into a couple very large csv files that I was continually adding information to. These had data from 2014 to now and were of 80 MB in size. So in order to fix it I went and broke those files up by year and now the biggest one is a little over 23 MB. After doing that I have refreshed multiple times and have not had the issue again. I think the end reason was that because the files were so large and they were saved on Sharepoint that when the query was ran it would sometimes "timeout" in pulling the data. We deal with very sensitive data so I can see that a security measure could be put in place to prevent unauthorized downloads of data.

     

    So, if anyone else has the same issue it might be because the Excel files they are querying are just too large and need to be broken up some.
