Pascal, if you launch your forms with the NAME clause, like:

DO FORM myForm1 NAME ParentForm

you can issue

ParentForm.listbox1.Refresh()

Or, you can pass the parent form object as a parameter when you call the child form:

DO FORM myForm1 WITH thisform

and in INIT() of child form assign the parameter to the form property (say, .oCallingForm

then call it like

thisform.oCallingForm.listbox1.refresh()

Don't forget to set this property to .NULL. when you close the child form.
