Flickering Screen

Hi,

I have a document that has some VBA located in various sheets, however on one sheet within the document there isn't any yet when viewing the spreadsheet I get a constant flickering of the cells.

I've created a copy of the sheet and moved it to a new document and the flickering isn't present.

I have recorded a video of this if anyone can help?

Thanks,
Mark

RE: Flickering Screen

Hi Mark,

Thank you for the forum question.

Does it stop flickering if you turn Automatic Calculation to Manual?

If it something to do with the macro you can put the lines in the macro:

Application.ScreenUpdating=false
Application.Calculate = xlManual

the above lines must be at the top just after the Sub line

and just before the End Sub line type:

Application.ScreenUpdating=true
Application.Calculate = xlAutomatic

Please let me know if this didn't solve the issue.



Kind regards

RE: Flickering Screen

Hi,

Unfortunately this hasn't resolved the problem I've got - could it just be to do with the amount of data that the document is trying to process?

Thanks,
Mark

Excel tip:

Pivot table grouping

If you want to group items in a pivot table together, simply highlight the labels for the fields either with the shift key (if adjacent)or with the contral key if they are not next to each other.
Right click and choose group. Give the cell a name.

When you double click on this cell it will either expamd or collapse your grouped area
