Default Macro to disable screen saver

In Excel2000, I would like to have a macro that will do something every
14 minutes in order to stop the screen saver and logout from popping
up. It is a work PC and the screen saver and logout are defaulted by
the netork to go on every 15 minutes. I was thinking of something like:

SendKeys ENTER

but I don't want to use ENTER because I want the macro to run another
macro that runs my reports and using the ENTER may make my other macro
not run correctly if every 14 minutes Excel is hitting enter. Is there
a way to sendkeys without sending anything just so that it interupts
the screen saver and logout procedure?

THanks
