    Async Delegates VS. Threading ..

    For executing asynchronous process, for instance fetching and loading data from database for controls like Combobox, Grid and stuff .. Is it better to use Asynchronous Delegates or use MultiThreading. What is the real difference between these two anyway ?

    Threading gives you more power and flexibility than using async delegates. At least that's what I think..

    With Async delegates you can't for example do thread pooling

    If your going the async route - make sure you have a callback defined so you can clean up - there was a known memory leak if you didn't in 2002 - not sure if it was fixed in 2003...
