Multi Threading in vb6

[venkataNaveen]

Hi All,

Was wondering if anyone could help me with this, I have an activeX Exe that was called from one standard exe. In standard Exe i instantiated that activex exe two times by using new keyword.

In that activex exe i used a loop that will take 7 seconds. while running the standard exe i observed that the two activex exe are not running simultaneously. how can i run the two activex exe simultaneously.

below i am giving the vb code.

standard exe:

Private WithEvents objEx As ex.clsMain
Private WithEvents objEx2 As ex.clsMain
 
Private Sub Form_Load()
    Set objEx = New ex.clsMain
    Set objEx2 = New ex.clsMain
    
    objEx.doProcess
    objEx2.doProcess
    
    Set objEx = Nothing
    Set objEx2 = Nothing
End Sub

Active X Exe:

option explicit
Public Sub doProcess()
    Dim objFile As FileSystemObject
    Dim stext As TextStream
    Dim i, j As Long
    i = 0
    j = 0
    
    Set objFile = New Scripting.FileSystemObject
    Set stext = objFile.OpenTextFile("D:\log.txt", ForAppending, True, TristateUseDefault)
    stext.WriteLine "------------------------------"
    stext.WriteLine " this is for testing "
    stext.WriteLine "------------------------------"
    stext.WriteLine "Start Time : " & Time
    While i < 90000000
        While j < 9000000
        j = j + 1
        Wend
        i = i + 1
    Wend
    stext.WriteLine "End Time : " & Time
    stext.Close
    Set stext = Nothing
    Set objFile = Nothing
   End Sub

Regards,
Naveen

A CPU cannot run 2 processeses at the same time. It's not really clear what you need to do.
