I published a workbook and connected it to a refreshed version of a data source; now it treats every calculated field like something that should be in the data source and throws up an error that it isn't present. How can I keep this from happening so I don't have to recreate the entire workbook just to update the data connection?

This usually happens when the refreshed data source schema doesn't exactly match the original. Check field names and data types, and use Replace Data Source instead of creating a new connection. If fields were renamed, Replace References can often reconnect calculated fields without rebuilding the workbook.
