How to Repaint client area of a MDI form ? [Resolved]

[CVMichael]

Thanks, it is quite simple...
This is all I needed (from the MdiBack class):

Const swpFlags As Long = _
      SWP_FRAMECHANGED Or SWP_NOMOVE Or _
      SWP_NOZORDER Or SWP_NOSIZE
 
Call SetWindowPos(Me.hWnd, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, swpFlags)

I'd try these as another couple of methods:

Public Const RDW_UPDATENOW                  As Long = &H100

Public Declare Function RedrawWindow Lib "user32" _
    (ByVal hWnd As Long, _
     ByRef lprcUpdate As Any, _
     ByVal hrgnUpdate As Long, _
     ByVal fuRedraw As Long) _
As Long

Public Declare Function UpdateWindow Lib "user32" _
    (ByVal hWnd As Long) _
As Boolean

Call them like this

RedrawWindow Me.hWnd, ByVal 0&, 0, RDW_UPDATENOW
' or
UpdateWindow Me.hWnd

Both should have the same effect.
