How to name a thread?

In form_load(), I do this
Thread.CurrentThread.Name = "MainThread"

However, in the debugger thread window, I see:

<No Name> appname.Classname.Form1_load Normal 0

Why does it still have <No Name>? Which name is that?

Thanks,
Brett

I believe this is happening, because the line with <No Name> gets written
Before your code runs. I think that the line is written as it Starts
Form_Load and Not after the code in form_load has run. Just a theory. Good
luck!

If I write something like....

Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.Name = "MainThread"

End Sub

I set the name for my form's main thread. Check out the attached file
