I have looked and looked but something is just not clicking. I'm running a simple tcp server in the background and want to update a datagrid with the incoming information. The server is working, but I cannot get the UI grid updated.
I set up the background worker and in the server sub I have reportprogress. The msgbox you see pops up and has the correct text in it, but the grid is not updating. I thought that could be assessed in this progress changed function. What am I missing?
Thanks
Code:
Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Me.Show()
BackgroundWorker1.RunWorkerAsync()
End Sub
Private Sub BackgroundWorker1_DoWork(sender As System.Object, e As System.ComponentModel.DoWorkEventArgs) Handles BackgroundWorker1.DoWork
BackgroundWorker1.WorkerReportsProgress = True
Main()
End Sub
Private Sub BackgroundWorker1_ProgressChanged(sender As Object, e As System.ComponentModel.ProgressChangedEventArgs) Handles BackgroundWorker1.ProgressChanged
Dim D(20) As String
Dim ReceivedLine As String
ReceivedLine = CType(e.UserState, String)
MsgBox(ReceivedLine) ' This comes up and gives me the correct text
D = ReceivedLine.Split("~")
Try
Me.MainGrid.Rows.Add(D(0), D(1), D(2), D(3)) ' nothing is added to the grid. I did an add in form_load and it works.
Catch ex As Exception
MsgBox(ex.Message)
End Try
End SubThanks
