AsyncCallback V's Threading

[Bombdrop]

Hi all just wanting to get some other coders views on which to use, by that until now I have always used a thread to perform a data intensive task but as you are aware the need to use invoke if this process wishes to interact with the calling GUI. Today I came across AsyncCallback which if i understand it correctly works very much like a thread but allows for GUI updating without the hassle of checking for Begininvoke. SO what do you in your opinion think is "better" to use.

Many thanks

The AsyncCallback delegate references a method to execute when an asynchronous operation completes. You can't use it to interact with the GUI during an asynchronous operation.
