Hello,

Okay, this is a newbie question. I get some nasty flickering in my
window when I use the FillRect method to change the background color
of my window. Any ideas about how I might fix this? The flickering is
actually large white bars that scroll across the window. It only
happens when I resize or move the window, by the way.

Thanks

Where are you using FillRect? If it is erasing the background, then you
should handle it in WM_ERASEBACKGND and returning a non-zero value to
indicate that the message has been handled. Also, you should set the style
part of the wc/wcex structure to either 0, or CS_OWNDC.
