Stop Screen Flicker In Excel While Running Excel VBA Macro Code. See Also: Speed Up Code

If you record Excel macros, as apposed to writing them, you will often wish to stop the screen flicker caused by your macro selecting cells and Worksheets. Even inexperienced VBA coders, that write their own code, often and up with the same problem due to their code being full of Select, Selection, Activate etc. Not only is it off-putting for the end user but it also causes macros to run much slower.

Stop Excel Screen Flicker

The long term aim should be to write better and more efficient code however, that is not always possible. The other option is to use a simple line of code like: Application.ScreenUpdating=False This will stop Excel having to repaint the screen each time the macro does something. To see the huge improvement that can be obtained, run the 2 macros below via Tools>Macro>Macros.

Sub SlowWithFlicker()

Dim rCell As Range

    For Each rCell In Range("A1:A15000")

        rCell.Select

    Next rCell

End Sub



Sub FastWithNoFlicker()

Dim rCell As Range

    Application.ScreenUpdating = False

        For Each rCell In Range("A1:A15000")

            rCell.Select

        Next rCell

    Application.ScreenUpdating = True

End Sub
