• Microsoft ISV Community Center Forums Borland Out, where to go from here?

  I've found the best way to get a straight answer, or some honest advice is to simply ask another developer. I'm a small ISV designing software on multiple platforms. In the past years, I've been studiously avoiding Microsoft development tools for a variety of reasons - mostly cost and preference. I used Borland for a decade, and it performed well most of the time. Now that Borland is no longer in the developer business, I have to have an eye for ...Show All

The problem arises in my routine in the main form to update the listview, which as far as I can tell I have structured correctly.  The .Invoke line (bolded ...Show All
