Screen Flickering

How do you stop the screen flickering?

RE: Screen Flickering

Hi Steven,

Thank you for the posting

Running VBA code may cause the screen to flicker as the monitor is the slowest part of the program and cannot keep up with the very fast changes taking place.

To switch off the screen until the program is run enter the following code line at the beginning of the procedure:

Application.ScreenUpdating = False

The screen comes on automatically on completion of the program. If you require screen updating to resume before the end type


Application.ScreenUpdating = True

Excel tip:

How to apply the same formatting and data to multiple sheets at the same time in Excel 2010

When you want to format more than one sheet in a worksheet exactly the same way, Ctrl-click the tabs of the sheets you want to group together and they will all turn white. While they are grouped, anything you enter in one sheet gets entered into the others.

After you have done this, remember to click on the tabs to take them out of the group so that you do not accidentally insert data in multiple sheets when you just want to insert data in one.
