"Really" freezing a screen (stop flashing)

[Ed]

Is there anyway to stop the screen flashing as a process which reassigns
values in the document body and the headers and footers goes thru its paces?

I have tried "Application.ScreenUpdating=False", but screen updating
somehow turns itself back on, apparently when it encounters a new section
or footnote. I can turn it back off at the top of the next 'do' loop but the
flashing is what is disconcerting.

From reading previous posts, ScreenUpdating seems to have a mind of its own.

Make sure you are using range instead of Selection.

If you are loading documents, use visible=false.
