Forcing a C# form Datagrid to repaint

[Vernware]

I am working in C#.net and have a Datagrid control. The grid seems to work ok except for a new problem I have noticed. When I resize the main form (and consequently the Datagrid) and scroll around the Datagrid using the forms scroll bars and then maximize the form and the Datagrid I notice that the Datagrid does not seem to repaint properly. The entire grid design is messed up. I suspect this may be a repaint problem. Somehow and somewhere I need to force the grid to repaint. I would appreciate any tips as to how and where I should do this. Thanks, Vern Vern

I can't really understand what your problem is, maybe you should be a little more clear on when the datagrid does not repaint itself correctly. As for HOW you can repaint it, datagrid.Invalidate(); should do the trick Regards, Vandra Akos

Vandra: Thanks for the tip about the datagrid.Validate(). I put this in the Scroll event of the datagrid and this solved the problem I was having. Let me try to explain the problem I was having again: First I resize the datagrid so that the scroll bars show up. Then I scroll around the datagrid. Finally I resize the Datagrid so that it fills the screen. Now when I scroll again, the grid is messed up. Some columns appear twice, some don’t appear at all, its just really messed up. Anyway, when I put the Datagrid.Invalidate() in the Scroll event, all is well. Thanks again for your help. Vern Vern
