Eric, try adding set refreshing false ... set refreshing true
around those script commands. It's possible that a careful investigation of your script will show us which command is doing the early refresh, and we might be able to fix it, but maybe not. There are various commands that cause a refresh, including just using "select visible", for instance. Without seeing the whole script I wouldn't be able to tell. The refreshing setting allows you to control this sort of thing and prevent display until you specifically want it.
