Locking refresh of winform

[Luis Soler]

Hi:

Can I lock refresh of winform to avoid to visualize some temporary changes ?
I am changing bindincontext of some controls to do certain checkings and I
don't want that the user sees the changes of field's contents..
Visual FoxPro, for example, has intruction: Thisform.LockScreen

Thanks

Hi,

Take a look at the forms SuspendLayout and ResumeLayout methods.
