Excel VBA screen updating

Hi,

I am having some trouble with the screen update command. As recommended by the trainer, I used application.screenupdating = false at the beginning of my macro, but it still updates the spreadsheet and is really annoying for any end-user. I have lot of iterations happening within my macro. Any reason why this is happening? I don't select or activate within the macro, which means i don't use the clipboard. Not sure where the mistake is. Please do look into this. Thanks.

RE: Excel VBA screen updating

Hi Rahul

Thank you for your question regarding screenupdating.

I have never had screenupdating fail on me. Can I suggest you put a stop point on that line and then step through the code to see if a particular action is resetting the update?


Please let me know how you get on.

Excel tip:

Wrapping Text in a Cell in an Excel 2010 Workbook

When you have a lot of text you want to put in a particular cell but you can't decrease the font size to fit because the text will then become ineligible, then manually wrap the text in a cell by simply pressing ALT+ENTER.
