Hi,

There's LockWindowUpdate API call that could do the job. You can also try
sending the WM_SETREDRAW message to the form window to prevent it from being
redrawn.

But using .NET commands is it possible?

I'm afraid not. Some .NET controls expose methods like BeginUpdate() and
EndUpdate(), but there are only a few such controls. To the best of my
knowledge, forms themselves do not expose such methods.

Some controls provide 'BeginUpdate' and 'EndUpdate' methods.

If you want to stop /layouting/, use 'SuspendLayout' and 'ResumeLayout'.

If nothing works, use p/invoke on 'LockWindowUpdate' or 'SendMessage' +
'WM_SETREDRAW'.
