Hi Jerry:
You are correct about running the script, but there are also times when
it is preferable tu use the RefreshWindow function instead.

The RefreshScreen script will cause a sort of brief flickering of the
screen when all of the windows are refreshed.  This can also cause the
triggering of other events which might lead to double speaking.  If you
use the refreshWindow function, you can specify the handle of the window
you are interested in, and depending on the structure of the application
and the number of windows contained in the window you are refreshing,
You may achieve the desired effect without the side effects of the
RefreshScreen script.

Why not use PerformScript to execute the RefreshScreen script? You'd
get 
all the stuff that Insert+Escape gives you, I think.
