Hi i was wondering if it is possible to multi thread a function, im running this function to download files from a website so the function will look like this. the problem is i run this function many times and it will make the program be unusuable while its downloading

Code: Select all

Public Function download(ByVal URL, ByVal fileName, ByVal downloadPath)
'Download code here
end Function

When trying to do it as i usually would i get this

Code: Select all

Error	2	'AddressOf' operand must be the name of a method (without parentheses).	path\Form1.vb	52	72	program

You want insert a thread for this function?

Code: Select all

Imports System.Threading

Dim Update_Job As Thread

Update_Job = New Thread(Sub() download(url,fileName,downloadPath)
Update_Job.Start()

also

Code: Select all

Imports System.Threading

ThreadPool.QueueUserWorkItem(Sub() download(url,fileName,downloadPath))

UPDATE: I see now your edit, use Sub() instead of AddressOf
