Plz help me

Help yourself and read the article I linked to you. Threading is not a simple subject that can be explained in 3 lines. If you want to use multithreading and understand what you are doing, then you'll need to spend a bit more time than asking a question on a forum.

Yes m_listba is global variable.

That's really ugly, you should make it a member of your dialog class. You can't access it from your thread so why making it a global varialbe ? And by the way, the "m_" suffix is usually applied to class member variables (m for member). If you use it on a global variable, it is totally confusing.

sorry m_listba is member variable..

Then your code cannot compile (unless I missed something or you didn't post everything). Anyway, we can discuss the whole day about minor details as this, it still won't make your code work because you can't access UI elements (like the list box) from a separate thread. Serioulsy, I have the impression to talk to a wall here :sigh: ... Did you read that damn article finally ?

The worker thread shouldn't directly manipulate the GUI. It should instead post a message to the GUI thread, with in turns updates the GUI. It's not difficult, instead of calling InsertString from within the thread, call PostMessage with appropriate data. On receiving the message, the GUI thread will call InsertString. :)

The basic issue is that you're a retard. You've had explained to you why you can't do it, the framework it throwing exceptions, because you can't do it, and you're still trying to do it. Perhaps you should learn VB, or even Logo ?

The point is that everything is explained in the article, with an example and everything. And the example is about a list box being "populated" from a worker thread (through a message sent to the UI). So, I think this is a lost cause :sigh:

I supposed it was already in the 'Retard's Toolbox'. :-D
