Instead, I have used Threads in place of timers for situations like you describe. At the time just did a brute force Do...Loop until it reached the target time (in Microseconds), but now I would try to revise that the code take advantage of the newer Thread.Sleep() method. At some point, I would like to create a Thread-based Timer class which will run in cases that a Timer will not.


Thanks... but is it safe to use a thread to update Listbox.ScrollPostionX and will the screen be updated during the drag?
