Dear All,

Could anyone please tell me why the following code is running instantly in
Excel 2000 and 2002 but takes minutes in Excel 2003. The named range
Countries is only a little bit more than 40 rows.

Sub Mask_Countries()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
ActiveSheet.Unprotect
ActiveSheet.DisplayPageBreaks = False

For Each c In [Countries].Cells
If (c.Value) = Empty Then
c.EntireRow.Hidden = True
End If
Next c

ActiveSheet.Protect
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

If I turn the automatic calculation off in Excel 2003 it runs a lot faster
but not instantly as in Excel 2000 and 2003.
