    Form Redraw Issue

    I have built a form with 2 Radio Buttons on it for basic and advanced
    configuration options. When the Basic option is selected I hide and
    reposition controls and visa versa for adavnced. Technically I am notmoving
    the controls, I am using a C!Sizer control and resizing the rows. The issue
    is that when the code executes you see the controls a flash where the
    controls are being redrawn. I tried using suspendlayout and resumelayout but
    that doesn't have much effect.

    Is there a way to stop this visual effect from happening?

          Never mind I ffound what I was looking for...but for anyone else intersested
          in the answer.

          Public Declare Function LockWindowUpdat e Lib _
          "user32.dll " (ByVal hwnd As Long) As Long

          Then wrap the update code in...

          LockWindowUpdat e(Window.Handle .ToInt32)
          --Your Code
          LockWindowUpdat e(0&)
