Force IE to repaint a specific ActiveX control?

[Eric D. Wilson]

I've got an ActiveX control that I'm trying to host in IE, but I'm running
into a problem where IE stops displaying the controls GUI.

The control is a composite control w/ horizontal scrolling lines. The number
of scrolling lines is dynamic based on information retireved from the server.
When the control resizes itself to accomodate the scrolling lines it appears
to vanish from IE. The control is still there and running, but the GUI
disappears.

Is there a way to force IE to repaint/display the control's GUI? I've tried
adding a button that just resets the controls height and width, but that
doesn't help.

Any other suggesstions?

Thanks
Eric
