[RESOLVED] [2008] Updating Form Variables during Thread

[tim8w]

I'm not sure exactly how to describe this. In VB6, there was a Timer command. I could create a variable of type Timer and loop until the current value for Timer exceeded the initial plus a given amount of time. This allowed me to update form variables while the timing loop was executing. How can I do something similar in .NET?

Here is a sample of the VB6 code:

    Dim StartTimer As Double

    StartTimer = Timer
    Do

        Call Sleep(100)
        txtFinalRefValue.Text = DVMread(SystemSetup.RefChannel)
        
    Loop While (Timer < (StartTimer + LeakTestTime)) And DoEvents()
