Painting on Form

[signup2010]

Help. Could someone tell how how to manually call the paint method on the form (ie. when a key is pressed). I don't want windows to tell me when to update the screen. I want the re-painting done now...!

Thanks.

Invalidate()... Hmm...

Anyways, this.refresh();

did the trick!

On a side note, I started learning how to program in C# after my QBASIC (circa 1980's) program wouldn't work on Windows Vista (DRP won't allow fullscreen). C# is like 100X prettier than QBASIC to generate graphics... ;)
