ValidateRgn (Windows CE 5.0)
This function validates the client area within a region by removing the region from the current update region of the specified window.

Parameters
hWnd
[in] Handle to the window for which you want to modify the update region.hRgn
[in] Handle to a region that defines the area that you want to remove from the update region.Set this parameter to NULL to remove the entire client area.

ValidateRgn assumes that the region coordinates are client coordinates.
The BeginPaint function validates the entire client area.
Do not call ValidateRect or ValidateRgn if you require validation of a portion of the update region before the next WM_PAINT message is generated.
