Screen Updating Double False

Dec 18, 2009

I have now seen a few codes, both from my instructor and on the web that is using code like this;

Application.ScreenUpdating = False

...... CODE HERE .....

Application.ScreenUpdating = False

Would there be any reason to this madness. Can't see why you wouldn't set it back to true and absolutly no reason to double false it?

Screen Flickering With ScreenUpdating Set To FALSE

Jul 8, 2007

trying to copy both the values and the format of a certain range from one worksheet to another I am faced with two problems:

a) how can I copy something without having to previously add ".select"? (in the end I want to avoid any screen flickering)

b) how can I copy both the values and the format in one line (currently I have to use two lines)

Current problem:
Below you can find a code snippet which is repitetiously launched in order to copy data(+format) from many sheets to one sheet, there is other code as well (not shown here), which is launched in between (dealing with charts and pictures). In order to avoid some screen flickering I have already included the "screenupdating=false" line, and I would like to drop the usage of any ".select" in my code, as any ".select" seems to update the screen irrespectively of "application.screenupdating=false" or not.

However, as soon as I erase any ".select" command, I get a runtime-error 1004 at the SECOND run of this code snippet here. The only way to circumvent this seems to include ".select" prior to the line causing the error. Why at the second run? Well, I think, it is because after the second run, the focus might remain with a chart and not anylonger at any cell. Is there any way executing the below code without the screen-flickering?

Sub copySample(ByVal M As Integer)

Dim wksTarget As worksheet, wksNow As Worksheet
Const maxRowsConsidered=1000

Set wksTarget=Worksheets("target")
Set wksNow=Worksheets(M)

columnNow = ((m-1)*8)+1
Application.ScreenUpdating =False

Screen Updating

Feb 13, 2009

Is there a way to disable updating to the screen but have a message displayed to the user while a macro is running? Something like a userform displayed on the screen or a message in the status bar. I vaguley remember you could "print" message to the status bar in LotusScript, wondering if there is something similar in Excel.

Application.ScreenUpdating = False
"the macro is running, hang tight"
...macro code in here...
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

Screen Updating Dilemma

Sep 7, 2007

I have a personal.xls macro that basically does a comparison of two different workbooks. One of these workbooks ihas it's own macros (which are there in case the user wants to run them separately)...anyways my main macro calls these other macros one at a time.

It seems that at each call, the screen updates, alternating sheets and/or workbooks....

I know about the Application.Screenupdating=True / False statements....but I am not sure where I should be putting them to get the whole thing to work seamlessly.... I tried them at the start and end of my main macro, but that doesn't do the job.

Screen Updating Off But Still Updates

Jun 20, 2013

I have a macro that opens many excel documents. I used the application.screenupdating to turn off viewing these excel documents opening unfortunately they are still viewable. I counted the number of trues and falses in the module and there are 4. I believe the 2 pairs are unrelated. I keep both subs in the same module since they share functions.

Code:
Application.ScreenUpdating = False 'turbospeed
Debug.Print Application.ScreenUpdating 'shows true in break mode

Screen Graph Not Updating

Feb 23, 2010

The following short macro moves data into an area from where a series of graphs can either be displayed on the screen or printed. It may not be the most elegant of code and the way in which I "jump" around the hard copy option may raise some eyebrows, however except for what follows, it generally works.

When the "S"creen option is taken only the first graph is displayed, subsequent ones are not shown, (the screen does not refresh). What do I need to add to the coding to ensure each graph is shown? .....

Updating Original Data From Vlookup Screen

Apr 27, 2007

I need a method of updating a set of data held on tab1 from tab2 where details of one record is shown using VLOOKUP, possibly via a macro? For example:

Sheet 1 holds info on various companies - (Column headers: Name, address1,
address2, postcode, " DATE LETTER SENT")

Sheet 2 Uses a drop down menu to select the desired company and some VLOOKUP
formulas show the info from sheet1 on that one particular company. Sheet 3 There is a printable standard template letter which draws info from the record selected on sheet 2 (using standard =Sheet1!A1 formula) formated so the letter is addressed to the specific company selected. Back to: Sheet 2 - At the bottom there is a button which says 'Print' This runs a macro which selects sheet3, prints it then returns to sheet2. I need this macro to also go back to sheet1 and update the relevant record with ideally todays date (the date the letter was printed) in the "DATE
LETTER SENT" column mentioned before but can just be an 'X' to show a letter
has been printed for this company/record at some point. So in the future, by looking at sheet1 you can easil determine which companys have had letters printed against, and which havn't.

Pop Up Message To State That Excel Is Updating:Screen Update

Dec 6, 2006

i was wondering if there is a way to display a pop up message that a stating that the spreadsheet is currently updating.

What i have is a macro running on Auto_Open when workbook is opened. I have switch off the screen updating. What i want now is for maybe to have a pop up stating the spreadsheet is updating. Setting screen updating to false means that my excel freezes for a few seconds. I think users might be thinking that excel has crashed and therefore would like to include the message that the spreadsheet is updating its information.

2003 Is Too Far Up On The Screen

Sep 27, 2009

Screen Refresh

Nov 18, 2009

I have a large workbook with about 20 worksheets that I have used for several years without problems. Recently, I have been getting strange behavior when the screen refreshes. The biggest problem is that I get images of other worksheets covering my current worksheet when I change a cell. I can make them go away by scrolling or flipping between another worksheet and back. I have tried using manual recalc and this has helped somewhat but I can still get the images sometimes. The workbook contains VBA that performs various tasks on every worksheet (unlock, update pivots...) but these have been in there forever. There is also one piece of code that performs advanced filtering. I can only think there was something changed with a security patch, but I wanted to know if anyone else has had this issue and might be able to provide some advice on how to prevent it.

If False Statement

Jun 18, 2007

I have the following cells set up in a worksheet.
I have the following formula set for each of the cells -

=IF(U5>1,U5-1,T5)

=IF(T5>1,T5-1,S5)

=IF(S5>1,S5-1,R5) and so on.

Serial No.1 Serial No.2 Serial No.3 Serial No.4 Serial No.5 Serial No.6

#VALUE!#VALUE! #VALUE! #VALUE! 1005 1006



The T5, S5 and R5 are (I thought) the "False" value which would be returned, but all I am getting (if for example T5 was blank) is #Value

UDF Always Returning False?

Nov 19, 2009

I am including the entire code. It does a regression analysis on data for a second degree polynomial. In doing so, it creates a worksheet called Regression. So I test first to see if this sheet already exists within the workbook and then ask the user to delete it if it does. I've stepped through the function and the function is always returning False whether Regression exists or not.

Set Togglebutton To False Every Day At 6am?

Nov 16, 2011

The user has a workbook that opens external workbooks, one being a Guard CheckSheet which the operators have to fill out every morning shift.

What currently happens is when they fill out their checks it close the workbook and sets a togglebutton back in the main workbook to true (puts a tick in the box).

This part works fine, but i need the box to clear (set to false) every day at 6am.

I have timers setup that work if i run through the code, but when i check the next day, the tick is still in the box.

Im not sure if its because the workbook is inactive for so long because the operators mainly have their timesheet workbook open for the majority of their shift?

Im currently playing around with having it clear based on the time of day when then Window_Activates or DeActivates, but that relys on them actually changing windows at that exact time or within a certain time frame.
