Hello,


   I am cuurently experimenting with MDI interface by
making some adjustments to the 'blandmdi' sample that
came with the SDK package. What I would like to do is
to be able to open several child windows, all containing
different contents, and to allow them to re-paint
properly when necessary so preserve the contents of
each window. I've managed to add some lines/shapes to each 
window, but there seems no way to tell which of the
child window requires re-painting. The message WM_PAINT
sent to the client window doesn't necessarily allow
re-painting of the child window at the right instance...

I'd appreciate if anyone can help!

Thanks.

-TG
