Hi all,

I have written a program, which uses some threads.
I call thread t from the main thread, and then after some work t must
show a modal window.(e.g. a messagebox) but because t is not the main
thread, the window appears non-Modal.

Is it possible to show a modal form, from within another thread?

thnx in advance.

Call the BeginInvoke or Invoke method of any control (this includes Forms)
that has been created in the main thread. You can pass a Delegate to
(Begin)Invoke. The Delegate points to a function that that calls ShowDialog.
