Hi,

I mean refresh it - i've written a screen saver / theme changer in DB and have accomplished everything I need to - I replace the .bmp file that is used for the current wallpaper with a new one - but want to get windows then to refresh its display.......

If I go in to control panel, on to display, change a few settings, then change them back and apply - the new wallpaper is displayed........but thats a load of hassle - there must be some way of making a windows call to force the refresh!!!!!!!

Thanks

Phil
