Default variable scoping - constants going out of scope - circular references

The code might help.

My global variables seem to be going out of scope. I keep reverting to
using a temporary cell - which seems ridiculously inefficient and messy.


I have a circular reference I am trying to avoid by using a boolean
variable, declared in ThisWorkbook:
Public bChangingDate As Boolean

When I begin changing the dates on my sheets, to avoid a circular
reference (I have a watch setup on this cell that first checks for this
boolean) I set it to True.

I run a couple of procedures within this block of code, but somehow by
the time it is finished my bChangingDate has returned to Empty, thus
entering my code into a circular reference.

I am now again stuck with finding a temporary hiding cell to put a value
into, so that it will 'stick'.

Any advice?
