Instead of form_activate()

In VB6 and earlier we had a form_activate() event whereby it always fired
every
time the form gained was focussed.

In VB.net I don't see it and we have a _activate() event.

What event would I use for the background form to refresh once the
foreground
form has been closed?

_Enter

_Shown

???

TU,
Adam

Handle the form's 'Activated' event instead.

Indeed, not sure why I didn't think this up myself :(

Thanks,
Adam
