I was hoping to synchronise the method but I guess the only way to
accomplish this is to 'lock a block'
You really have a good handle on .NET Threading issues
Now back to our regularly scheduled programme..
Thanks Gregory!

C# has shortcut syntax for locking:
class Foo {
void Bar() {
lock(this) {
//do stuff
}
}
}
This is actually shorthand for:
class Foo {
void Bar() {
System.Threading.Monitor.Enter(this);
try {
} finally [
System.Threading.Monitor.Exit(this);
}
}
}
.NET doesn't have synchronized methods like Java, but it has synchronized
blocks (as above) just like Java. For more information, look into the
System.Threading.Monitor class, which provides an implementation of the
standard monitor synchronization primitive. (Google for Hoare monitor
for more on that.)
} Many Thanks,

P.S. I took it off-list since it really is offtopic, but I wouldn't mind
if you mentioned to the list that I'd provided the information you
needed.
