We have a DDEX data provider and would like to do special handling for refresh on the data connection.  Is there a way to subscribe to the refresh event?

Hello,

Do you want the Refresh command event handler? it seems that both of DataConnection Events are not responsible for it.
In Visual Studio Extensibility, we could use the DTE.Events to get the Refresh command event with its GUID and command ID, and then add our subscription to EnvDTE.CommandEvents.BeforeExecute delegate.
About how to get the command set and command ID of a specific command, please refer to this article:
Using EnableVSIPLogging to identify menus and commands with VS 2005 + SP1

And you would like to take a look this similar thread: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vsx/thread/80d86c9c-5f4a-43e6-a83e-905fe08fd016

Hope that helps.

Sincerely,
Wesley
