Re: Command to refresh the properties window and form?

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

I found out how to do this myself:

// Tell the designer that a property of another control has changed
IComponentChangeService c =
(IComponentChangeService)GetService(typeof(IComponentChangeService));

c.OnComponentChanged(AnotherControl, null, null, null);
