I am just starting to try the ThreadExample in Chapter 19. I am starting to create the ThreadWorker class and get this far:

Imports System.Threading

Public Class ThreadWorker
   Public TextBox As TextBox
   Private _thread As Thread

End Class

But VB doesn't like the line declaring _thread. The error message is "Type expected". I have loaded the source from the site for the project, and it is fine, but when I copy it into my project, I get the error message. Is there some project setting I am missing?

Thanks for any help.

Nevermind! I figured it out.

I had also named my project "Thread" which conflicted with the name of the object I was trying to instantiate.
