Recorded Macro Works, Code Doesn't

Hello all,

This is an question that I can't solve, but it's not a terribly important
issue.

I've been tasked to rewrite some macros that various users have recorded.
It's fairly straightforward and I don't have any problems. But there's two
lines of code that are all over the macro, and I can't figure out how they
were recorded. If I remove those two lines and try to run them
independently, it crashes. I'm wondering if I'm missing something, thought
I'd throw it out there. Again, this is just to satify my curiousity.

The lines are:
ActiveWindow.Visible = False
ActiveWindow.Activate

These two lines appear maybe 5 times per macro. But the user doesn't know
what they did, and I haven't been able to duplictate it.

I can duplicate each line, but not together (in that order). I have to hide
the sheet to get the first line, but activate doesn't work with a hidden
sheet.

Anyone smarter know what's going on?

Thanks,
Jay

Whoops. I posted this in the wrong forum. Please ignore, I've reposted it
elsewhere.
