problem with flexgrid flickering

In a timer I am updating the contents of a flexgrid. The problem is that as I amend each line the flexgrid flickers which I can't stand.

The next thing I tried was using LockWindowUpdate api to lock a flexgrid while I make some changes to it then unlock it when I am finished, which prevents the flexgrid from flickering and I was happy for a while. Only problem is that when the application is minimized, my desktop flickers which looks terrible.

Anyone else have any other suggestions?

Have you tried setting the grid's .Redraw = False, make changes to the grid, and reset .Redraw = True?

That's it, thx.
