cross-thread UI updating?

thanks!

sure enough, using ADI for the worker-to UI thread works w/o problems. fyi, i switched to the EventHandler style only because the MSDN article did so -- they were showing how one can make a custom progress class, pass in custom events, etc..

btw, i found what the problem was w/ my line. i had converted the MSDN article from C# to VB, but didnt include something needed for VB...:

Me.BeginInvoke(New System.EventHandler(UpdateUI), eventArgs)

should be:

Me.BeginInvoke(New System.EventHandler(AddressOf UpdateUI), eventArgs)


but i checked out the BackgroundWorker class:

...awesome! this is the dream-solution i was wondering why didnt exist. but (wait for it) im on .NET v1.1.... doh! no love for me. so ugliness it is.


thanks man.
