See the class documentation for the System.Threading namespace in the .NET Framework SDK. There's lots of information in there. WaitHandle and its derivates have several wait methods that wait for the WaitHandle to be signaled. There's also classes for mutexes and monitors. If you use the lock keyword in C# against an instance of an object (a static object for synchronizing static resources, and an instance - if you prefer - for instance resources). There's a good section on programming in .NET with threads. See Threading[^] in the .NET Framework SDK on MSDN Online for more information, which should be the first place you check (such as scanning what's available in the class library reference).
