I have a listview procedure that I need updated every few seconds. The procedure takes a user-added memory address and reads the value at the address then puts all of it into a listview in an organized manner (Description, address, value = 1 row). My procedure works fine however, I want to set a timer so it will update the value every few seconds. The code that I have looks something like this:

invoke SetTimer,hWnd,4,100,ADDR LoadValue

LoadValue proc uses esi
		LOCAL lvi:LV_ITEM
		invoke	GetDlgItem,hWnd,1001
		mov		hList2,eax
		invoke	SendMessage,hList2,LVM_GETITEMCOUNT,0,0
		mov	 	esi,eax
		
		.while 	esi != 0
		dec 	esi
		mov     lvi.imask,LVIF_TEXT
		mov		lvi.pszText,offset itemcount
		mov		lvi.iItem,esi
		mov		lvi.iSubItem,1 
		invoke 	SendMessage,hList2,LVM_GETITEMTEXT,esi,addr lvi
		invoke 	htodw,addr itemcount
		mov		itemcount,eax
		invoke	ReadProcessMemory,editprocess,itemcount,addr val2,4,NULL
		invoke	wsprintf,addr val3,addr format3,val2
		mov     lvi.imask, LVIF_TEXT
		mov     lvi.pszText,offset val3
		mov		lvi.iSubItem, 2 
		invoke	SendMessage, hList2, LVM_SETITEM, 0, ADDR lvi
.endw
ret
LoadValue endp

Now this all works fine but you have to keep selecting the listview area in order for the value to refresh. Any ideas on how to get it to refresh withut having to select the listview area? Any help is appreciated.

Look into UpdateWindow and RedrawWindow for forcing a redraw.
