  Guys:

  I draw a pie graph in a pic box using data from SQL, everything works totally cool, until I minimize or resize the form, because the picbox will not redraw itself.

  Now, I already tried all the possible solutions (add the paint code in the paint event, SetStyles, doublebuffering, etc).

  The most I got is to be able to draw the graph again by calling the drawing code from the paint event and passing the picbox (sender) as argument, but inmediately after the drawing function finishes (I can see the graph drawn in a few miliseconds), the picbox goes black again.

  Anyone knows what kind of demon I am dealing with here?

  Thanks

  Guys

  Found the solution: DO NOT use a picture box to draw graphs and stuff, use a panel instead.

  Pictureboxes are possessed and should be avoided at all cost.
