Autofit Worksheet

Question

I’ve a worksheet in a workbook containing over 400 rows, 8 columns and 160 merged ranges and I messed up its appearance. I searched the internet for VBA Autofit Merged Cells. None of the URLs are much use. The macro on this website is on the right track but: -
1) I’d have to manually identify and type in the 160 merged ranges.
I added a search for merged cell ranges.
2) It uses row one to do merged cell calculations (Cell ZZ1). I use a much larger font on cell A1 (Title) which results in errors calculating required merged autofit height.
I use a cell 1 column right and 1 row below data. (Ctrl+Shift+End, doesn’t find this cell)
3) It recalculates all merged cells so it reduced the height of two rows containing both merged and normal cells making the normal cells unreadable.
I alter row height only when the required merged height exceeds existing height.
4) The method for copying data in merged ranges to cell ZZ1 is incorrect, based only upon text in the merged range but not taking account of differing font sizes in various merged cells.
I corrected the copying method.
5) The macro is slow: about 15+ seconds on my worksheet.
Switching off screen refresh and back on at end of macro reduces this to 2 seconds.

I managed to find another irritating fault. Autofit the worksheet (before correcting the merged ranges) and it distorted several rows. Some “Normal” cells, set to wrapped, had their height increased and were appearing as a line (or two lines) of text with a blank row below the text. Internet search indicated that it’s caused by Excel altering the display to accommodate printer fonts. Found a “work around”, I added to the macro:
Increase column widths by a small percentage.
Autofit all rows on worksheet.
Carry out corrections to row height to accommodate merged ranges.
Revert column width to original sizes.
That fixed it, blank rows are now no longer appearing!

Thought that all was now correct but I then discovered a further problem. If I close the workbook and reopen it again, the blank rows are back again. Looked at File/Options and I have searched the Internet for a method of preventing the workbook updating the screen display on closing/opening the workbook without success. I had to add Private Sub Workbook_Open() on the “ThisWorkbook” tab with a call to run the Macro when the workbook is opened.

Is it possible to prevent Excel from changing the screen display appearance on closing/reopening the workbook?
