Default flashing screen driving me bonkers!

Good morning all! (evening or night as the case may be)
I am new to VBA coding so pardon my ignorance please, but I could
really use some help.

I have created a loop that cycles through over 5000 rows of
information from one workbook, seeks out and sums amounts that meet
multiple criteria and places those sums into a new workbook. As my
code runs my screen flashes between the two workbooks and is very
annoying!

My question is... is there a way to have these calculations running in
the background? Setting visible properties? Any suggestions would be
greatly appreciated!!!

Thanks for your time,
Deb

Sub your_routine()

Application.screenupdating = False

your_code

Application.screenupdating = True

End Sub
