Photographic surveys completed during the past 30 years yielded data of about 600 flare stars in these fields. Although their average flare number is very low 17 of the stars produced 10… 120 flare ups. In order to investigate the possible long-term activity changes of these objects a new method - which is described below -was developed. Making use of it significant flare frequency variations were found at two out of three ‘active’ flare stars.
