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

Sheets Are Flickering Even No Macro Running

Oct 27, 2008

Some of my sheets are flickering even when there is no macro running. It blinks and flashes from time to time. It does not affect the funktion in the sheet except that its annoying as hell. Some times I have to scroll down and back up to "clear" the screen from the flicker/flash effects.

I can open an old file fresh and it flickers and flashes from start. It doesnt matter if I start it with or with out macro activated.

Running Simple VBA Code Causing Screen Errors

Nov 30, 2009

I have a rather large workbook (30 sheets, 10MB) that has one worksheet with many INDIRECT functions in it (pulling data from the same file, different tabs). I am working to put simple code into the workbook to protect and/or unprotect all worksheets. I have gotten code to work to both protect and unprotect all the sheets, but when I run the unprotect code (see below), and then I go to edit the workbook, data from the sheet with many "indirect" functions temporarily "overwrites" the data on the active sheet (this is fixed when I scroll my mouse over the effected cells). I am developing this workbook for other users, so I'd like to fix this before sending it off to them.

This problem does not happen until after I run the following .....

Charts Flickering

Sep 29, 2004

I have lots of charts in a sheet "plots" which is based on data in sheet "data Summary". Sheet "plots" have the following code, which is based on the event "actiavte". At the end my main macro, I am activating sheet "plots" and all the charts are working fine. After this if I go to any other sheet in the workbook and come back to "plots", all the charts are flickering and the cursor turns to busy mode. I don't understnad why this is happening.

Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
For Each ChtOb In ActiveSheet.ChartObjects
ChtOb.Chart.PlotVisibleOnly = False
Next
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("plots"). Range("e1").Activate
On Error GoTo Handle
With ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("s21max").Chart.Axes(xlCategory, xlSecondary)
.MinimumScale = Application.Average([s21high]) + -4 * Application.StDev([s21high])
.MaximumScale = Application.Average([s21high]) + 4 * Application.StDev([s21high]) + Application.StDev([s21high]) * 0.25
.CrossesAt = .MinimumScale..........................

Excel 2013 :: Filter Data And Edit With A Search Instead Of The Filter Button

Oct 5, 2013

I have a database in Excel 2013 and now I want that when a value (a person's name) is entered in a cell. That then the database sort of filters the list for me, so it's still possible to make changes in the entries.

Picture above to specify the search, which I would therefore like to edit

I have been all morning working on a simplified version of the tutorial from YouTube: Create your own Excel Search Pt. 4. But came back later so only then that I can not change the data:?

Advanced Filter Code - Criteria Range More Than 1 Row Breaks Filter

May 1, 2014

I found a great bit of Advanced Filter code that works great, and fixed a problem of clearing a cell breaking the filter.

But if I want to increase the criteria from 1 row to 2, so you can start to include And , Or operations, it breaks the filter. Even an attempt at a manual one fails, until you put the criteria range back down to one row, then it's fine again.

I've tried changing the Target Row to >2 but that didn't work. how to make the criteria range bigger, and no problems of breakage if you clear the cells? It makes for a very useful automated Advanced Filter.

Here's the code :

[Code] .....

Database = the named area of raw data.
DATA is the name of the raw data worksheet
The criteria range should be AZ1:BC3, but of course royally breaks it...

Excel 2013 :: Filter Date Using Timeline Filter

Dec 23, 2013

I just got into the world of PowerPivot, Excel 2013 and Pivot Tables and am in the process of creating a Dashboard which I will then be uploading to SharePoint 2013.

On top of page I added the new timeline filter which I've linked to my pivot charts. Now what I would like to do, is create an additional pivot chart which looks at whatever date range has been used in the timeline filter and subtract 5 years from that. So, when I select a date range of November 2013 - December 2013 in timeline filter, the additional pivot chart will show the details for November 2008 - December 2013. This is where I get stuck.

I'm using two SSAS cubes which I'm combining together in PowerPivot and then display in Pivot Tables and Pivot Charts.

Filter Results Of Primary Filter Sort

Feb 11, 2008

I am in the process of making a database more efficient and am running into a problem with sorting data. I currently am trying to use AutoFilter to sort the data. When I want to then narrow the results further using the same column as the critical and there is nothing that matches the critical, I get everything from the entire database that matches that critical rather than what I want to see, which, in this case, would be nothing.

I have attached a sample file. In it, when All AF 1000 is run and then Selected MAC 2000 Wash is run, I want to see no results instead of seeing all MAC 2000 Washes from the original data set. I can do it using IF/THEN but I am looking for a faster way to do it.
