Indication of FileNames [modified]

[Chandrasekharan P]

I have slightly changed the query. Changed part is put in italics i have a button in my dialog based application which calling a thread, This thread in-turn calls another function, this function is in a different class which actually does file manipulation (basically i am converting some text files to binary files). Now how do i display which file is getting converted in the main dialog where i am calling the thread?

One way to do it is to send user defined messages to your main dialog. Here[^] is a great article that you should read if you want to better understand threads and the interaction with the UI.
