From: Spero on 26 Feb 2010 00:04 I developed a simple app, it goes out to an access db and populates a list box and pings as server. Pretty much how can I do both events at the same time without haveing to wait for one to complete before moving on to the next one. It acts like an application monitor where I ping the servers every 15mins and see if they are up, they are totally seperate Public routines, sound simpel but it is not. I just want to ping all three severs and get the ping times. I have everything coded it is just the waiting that has me stuck! Thanks

Your problem is a typical example where a backgroundworker or a multithreading application has benefits. (Despite those we see often which only take more time). I think that I would go in your situation for the threadpool which seems pretty much made for your problem and not for the backgroundworker. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.threading.threadpool.aspx Samples are on the page Success Cor "Spero" <robspero(a)gmail.com> wrote in message news:646ace24-cc9c-4f2d-9d80-2bfd2c00454f(a)t41g2000yqt.googlegroups.com... > I developed a simple app, it goes out to an access db and populates a > list box and pings as server.
