Hello,

I have a class in which I use System.Threading.Timer. The callback function
should send a message using TCPClient. Since the Callback function is in an
another thread this doesn't work!

How do I Invoke a function in the class thread from the callback function?

The Class is not a Form class!

You need to be more specific. Neither TcpClient nor Socket have the
kind of thread affinity that System.Windows.Forms.Control has which
would require invoking a method on a specific thread.

What "doesn't work" about using TcpClient in the callback for the Timer?
