    Multithreading A Timer

    Can you multithread a timer in VB?
    If so can anyone tell me how to do this
    or provide some sample code?
    Thanks in advance!

    Re: Multithreading A Timer

    so far, I don't think vb support multithread until next version as we all know. however, you can create an activeX which contain a timer and raise an event when the timer trigger. you can program the activeX in vc which support multithreading and raise an event where vb can capture it.

    hope this help.

    There is a recent offering on Http://Planet-Source-Code.com/vb that is supposed to show how to Multi-Thread using VB. Haven't tried it but it gets a very high rating from people that have. Can't get its actual address or name because PSC.com is broke right now. You might try searching o Multi-Threading or the like. Maybe look in recent postings or Newest/ Best categories

    I Think VB doesnt support that.

    U can use VC++ AfxBeginThread() to implement same very easily.
