runing a process simultaneously

[dimonique]

Hi.. i have a simple application which has two sliders, when slided, it will execute a loop.
my problem is when I slide the other slider(slider2), the slider1 stop its processing and the slider2 starts its processing. is there a possibility that both of them will process when i slide them both..

Yes it possible, I would suggest to you to do some research on multi-threading in .NET.

dimonique, welcome to threading hell,

Dude when i first looked at threading i shat myself, the first thing it said in my msdn lib was somthing like this
"threading isnt easy, in fact its the hardest thing your ever do"
i was like OMG, but in the end it wasnt too bad, the only things i can say is,

You can only start a thread on a sub, therefore if you wana return soemthing from a function you can use a thread of the function so

private sub blah()
'run the function here
end sub

also remember dont run excess threads the first thing i went and done was opening threads here there and everywhere...
BAD IDEA

if you declare the thread public then it can be access from any part of the application....

Use intellisense it rocks with threading, if set up correctly

below is a link to something i just posted take a look your soon work it out
