Default supress screen refresh when macros running in excel VB

I want to supress the screen refresh/output while running VB macros in Excel.
There seems to be nothing in the help file to explain how to do it. I
assume it is there as it was in Quattro years ago before Excel was popular.

Enter the word Screen in the Help search box in Excel 2003 ... 3rd listing
Enter the word Screen in the Answer Wizard box in Excel 2000 Visual Basic
Help - 10th listing

I think Microsoft did a reasonably good job making it available ;-)
