Application.ScreenUpdating = false does not work

[G-Ma0801]

Application.screenupdating = False was not stopping the screen update when it was call straight in an event.

In my case, when adding Application.screenupdating = False in my Workbook_BeforeSave code, it did not do it's job.
When I moved the code I wanted to run before save to it's own module, then called the module from Workbook_BeforeSave, it worked like a charm...(events disabled in module, so additional sheet level events did not trigger)

Hoping this will help someone else out - drove me crazy for a while!!!
