Why? why?!

There is no such thing as "what is the code"? The code is written. What have you tried so far?

Why would you refresh the form so often? What if the user is doing something and the form refreshes?

Don't.
Instead, have your child forms create and signal an event, which the parent form then handles: Transferring information between two forms, Part 2: Child to Parent[^]

That way, you don't need a timer!
