I have a main form who calls a worker thread. Inside the thread, I call
EnableTimer from the main form.
EnableTimer enable Timer1 in the main form. When I debug the program, it
goes to EnableTimer, and although it sets Timer1.Enabled = True and call
Timer1.Start(), Timer1_Tick is never fired.
Why is Timer1_Tick did not get called ? No matter I set the Interval of
Timer1 to 1 or 4000, Timer1_Tick is never fired.

Thank you.

Codes from the main form:
Public Class frmQuoteServer
    Private Session As WorkerThread  = Nothing
    Private WorkerThread As Threading.Thread = Nothing
        Session = New WorkerThread
        WorkerThread = New Threading.Thread(AddressOf Session.ThreadMain)
        ' Initialize the client session object with the reference to
        ' this form, and the socket that was created
        Session.ClientForm = Me

        ' Initialize the worker thread and start its execution
        WorkerThread.Name = "WorkerThread"
        WorkerThread.Start()
    Public Sub EnableTimer()
        Timer1.Enabled = True
        Timer1.Start()
    End Sub

   Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles TimerGlobex.Tick
            Logon()
            Timer1.Enabled = False
    End Sub

Codes from the thread:
Public Class WorkerThread
    Public ClientForm As frmServer = Nothing

    Public Sub ThreadMain()

        If bDisconnect Then ClientForm.EnableTimer()
        Exit Sub
    End Sub

Your timer tick event seems to handle the tick event from a timer
called TimerGlobex, but you are only enabling the timer for Timer1.  Do
you have more than one timer?


Where is the handler for Timer1?

I am sorry, a typo in this forum.

It should have been:
Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
            Logon()
            Timer1.Enabled = False
    End Sub

Fniles,

For threading is the threading.timer

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/cpref/html/frlrfsystemthreadingtimerclasstopic.asp

It has no tick event, which is in the form class, which can only be used on
forms.

Don't ask any help for the rest from me, I hate this threading timer and
will forever try to come around it.
