Thanks so much: I’ve been looking for something like that for weeks, and finally this is the only way not to see that horrible flickering on my datagridview; a special thx to Michael for the vb code, which is the one I used.

I’ve had to return to windows developing after a couple of years away. Microsoft have still got the idea that making everything difficult for developers is a good thing. Start learning Objective C, it’ll only be a few years before Apple show Microsoft how it should be done.

Thanks for the code, works a treat.

Thanks for Double Buffering!
It works better, but .Net DataGridView don’t works like grid at Delphi or result grid at Query Analyzer 2000… I can’t understand why it can works worse.. Maybe problem that .Net FrameWork is slow.
Thanks for code!

You are a life saver. And also thanks to Michael for posting the Visual Basic version of the code.

It was a freak of chance that led me here, since none of the keywords I was using to seek out an answer to the problem ever led me here.

Your solution is both elegant and powerful.

Awesome! Thanks! It works great!

I’m updating different styles for 100-200 cells and it was ugly to watch them peel down the DGV. It actually made some of my users perceive that the application was running slowly, assuming that it was a database latency issue.

None of the other suggestions worked, but this did. Now, the DGV quickly and professionally flashes to the re-styled cells.
