Thanks Dmitry,
I tried the "set map redraw" method and that did not seem to do the trick,
let me explain my problem ...
I'm creating a map using automation through a VB DLL I have created. When I
output the map to a JPEG using the 'save window' command all the layers are
'mixed up'. By that I mean some parts of one layer are below another layer
but above it in other areas (wierd).
When I do the whole process manually from within MI the output is fine. I
figured if I could re-draw the window within my code, then it would solve
the problem, but no joy so far
I would rather avoid using API calls if I can,
Scott..
