Fliker screen

[Marc Robitaille]

Hello,
In the application that I develop, there are several screens which contain
several controls. When the screen opens, controls do not draw at the same
time. There are several grids which are fillds from DataSet. There is also
ComboBox which are also filled from DataSet. I tried one or two solutions
but without success like SuspendLayout / ResumeLayout
I would like to know which is best the solution with that kind of problem?
Thank you
Marc R.

Have you tried using multiple threads or callback (delegate) functions?

One of your datasets maybe taking a long time to return the data... as a
result, your main thread is locked up. The main thread is used by the GUI,
and hence you see a flicker.
