C++ Forms Apps Not updating Text Box

I have a simple windows forms application where I am querying a server app running on another computer. The querying works fine, but I am having trouble displaying the results to a textbox. I was testing it in a for loop and it only writes the last result to the text box, even if I use Thread::Sleep for 5 seconds between query. How do I get it to write the results to the textbox each time?

Solution

  • call the refresh() method on the form after each update and it will be displayed.
