The way I handle this is with a flag:
Sub Main()
Application.ScreenUpdating = false
Call DoSomething
Application.ScreenUpdating = true
End Sub
Sub DoSomething()
' declare flag
Dim bScreenUpdating As Boolean
' set flag
bScreenUpdating = Application.ScreenUpdating
Application.ScreenUpdating = false
'Do something else
' use flag setting
Application.ScreenUpdating = bScreenUpdating
End Sub

Are you doing something like the following?
Sub Main
Application.ScreenUpdating = false
Call DoSomething
Application.ScreenUpdating = true
End Sub
Sub DoSomething
Application.ScreenUpdating = false
'Do something else
Application.ScreenUpdating = true
End Sub
You wouldn't need those extra Screenupdating calls in DoSomething, as
DoSomething sub is already being called while ScreenUpdating = false.
Unsure if this will fix your problem though, I'm sorry I can't help you
any
futher. If I think of anything I'll make sure to jump back and let you
know,
but apart from asking to see your code nothing much else I can do.

Hi,
I have used the false, code, true combination in all subs. The screens
still keep flashing. Any other ideas?
Thanks,

End Sub
That's how I generally Use it and it works.

Hi,
In the Worksheet_deactivate event of Master worksheet, I activate the
Input worksheet. The Input worksheet_activate event then runs a macro
to form a pivot table in Table worksheet and use the values in the
Table worksheet to write a report in the Report worksheet.
When I deactivate Master worksheet all this happens, but there is
rapid flashing of various worksheets before the final output sheet
appears. I have tried using Screenupdating = false at various points.
How exactly do I use this Application property to avoid screens
flashing? Is there any other way to do this?
Thanks in advance for the help.
