I find that a manual page-down and page-up usually fixes the display issue. So you could add this:

Thank you for taking the time to respond! This would work I would imagine as i simply scroll down then up to refresh the page, however, this issue is not something that happens when the page opens up. It only happens when i enter data into a cell. Example: I click the button to open the page i desire, everything looks good, and then i enter data into a cell, everything still looks good, and then when i hit enter or anything else to have the data officially input into that cell that is when the display goes all wonky. so i would need to scroll down and up every time i enter data into any cell on the given page.

It seems so strange. I dont want to waste your time too much but If you would like, I could screen share the issue with you to show you or try to describe the issue and send a file

Jn12345 Yeah, as soon as they think macros are involved all thinking appears to stop. Point is, this also happens when no VBA is at play at all. I see this all the time: Delete a few columns from a spreadsheet and the display doesn't change until I page-down and page-up.
