FrmUpdateForm is the way to go.
Make sure you specify the proper form in the call, or else you'll be
updating something else. You can pass frmRedrawUpdateCode as the update
event, which should make the form redraw itself. FrmHandleEvent will
redraw in response to a frmUpdateForm event, or if you want to do it
yourself just call FrmDrawForm.
If that's not working, it's probably because of event flow problems. Turn
on the event log in the simulator and watch what happens, if you're on a
Mac. If not, set up some breakpoints wherever events are handled and watch
the flow.
