Add this to the class:


private delegate void TickerDelegate(String s);
private TickerDelegate tickerDelegate1, tickerDelegate2;


In the constructor, add this:


tickerDelegate1 = new TickerDelegate(SetLeftTicker);
tickerDelegate2 = new TickerDelegate(SetRightTicker);


Add these functions to the class:


private void SetLeftTicker(String s)
{
label1.Text = s;
}
private void SetRightTicker(String s)
{
label2.Text = s;
}


And finally, replace "label1.Text =" with this:
label1.Invoke(tickerDelegate1,new object[] { headline.Substring(0,i) });


This is the proper way to do it.

    No 1: Get rid of the author!
    No 2: Congratulate generalpf on his/her example. Maybe you should have written this article and not some one who stumbled across threading yesterday.

    Oh yeah, and replace "label2.Text =" with this:
    label2.Invoke(tickerDelegate2,new object[] { headline.Substring(0,i) });

    ...but I'm sure you knew that.
