Hello Everybody,
I am trying to update a form automatically with multiple text boxes. I have
a timer triggering code to collect data and then have that dat update the
textbox.text attribute. I have tried activate and refresh, both attributes
are not active atributes. The forms are child forms from a parrent form. The
code exist in the child form. I am collecting the information everytime the
system timer triggers the event handler. Is there another way of refreshing
the display? Is there a way of triggering the paint prosedure?

Thanks
Chad.
 
Chad,

xx.show from what ever control (this includes the form) refresh forever the
display. Be aware that showing is almost forever the most time consuming
method in a Windows application.

I hope this helps,

Cor
