Looking for .NET alternative to the LockWindoxUpdate function

Hi,

Is there a .NET alternative to the LockWindowUpdate from Windows's user32 dLL ?

Or is the only way to get this kind of function to import it from the DLL and by this way making the .NET application only running on Windows System ?
Thanks for help,

Steph.

You can use DllImport to call that function directly. Take a look at http://www.pinvoke.net/ for details.

Not sure what exactly you need this for in a Winforms application?
