Forest,
Ok, so why doesn't the worker thread call Invoke on a control on the
main UI thread, and then have that method passed to Invoke handle showing
the modal dialog?
Something tells me that you need to do a lot of work to make sure that
your app is performing multi threading and UI operations correctly. You
need to sort those issues out first.

we do need a form/dialog for one of the threads and for it to be
modal. so, message loops are the answer? can you giude or point me
to an example? thanks...
The reason this is happening is that you are most likely not running
message loops in those separate threads.
Why are you showing dialogs and using user interface controls in
separate threads anyways? Not that it's not possible, but for the vast
majority of situations, it's just not necessary.

i've seen previous posts somewhat related to this, so i apologize if
this is redundant.
I have a main form with separate threads. When showing a dialog like
<dialog>.ShowDialog(), it functions as a non-modal instead of modal.
any help is appreciated, thanks.- Hide quoted text -
