I don't have access (by design) to mainForm from the background thread (one of the drawbacks of a tightly coupled event mechanism such as delegates). My background thread receives events from hardware devices which may cause a background session (on a seperate thread) to be initiated. I'm using co

Brad, You're not giving much to go on here. Are we taking about: 1) Supressing a custom server control from invoking one of it's public events that may be raised whenever the click event of a containing button is fired? 2) Supressing a button click event from firing where the button is on a con
