    <p>I need to convert C# code to VB.NET code (based on .NET 3.5 and VS 2008), but I am having problem converting C# delegates to its VB.NET equivalent. </p> <p>The C# code I want to convert, which works properly, is here:</p> <pre><code>protected override void OnOwnerInitialized() { if (!MobileApplication.Current.Dispatcher.CheckAccess()) { // MobileApplication.Current is some 3rd party API // MobileApplication.Current.Dispatcher is type System.Windows.Threading.Dispatcher MobileApplication.Current.Dispatcher.BeginInvoke ( (System.Threading.ThreadStart)delegate() { OnOwnerInitialized(); } ); return; } DoSomething(); } </code></pre> <p>I translated to the following VB.NET code but it does not work:</p> <pre><code>Protected Overrides Sub OnOwnerInitialized() If Not MobileApplication.Current.Dispatcher.CheckAccess() Then MobileApplication.Current.Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(Function() New System.Threading.ThreadStart(AddressOf OnOwnerInitialized)) Return End If ' I also tried the following but I get thread related errors elsewhere in code 'If ((Not MobileApplication.Current.Dispatcher.CheckAccess()) And (Not threadStarted)) Then ' Dim newThread As New Thread(AddressOf OnOwnerInitialized) ' newThread.Start() ' threadStarted = True ' this is a shared / static variable ' Return 'End If DoSomething() End Sub </code></pre> <p>With the C# code, OnOwnerInitialized() gets called twice. On the first call, the function exists with the 'return;' statement; on the second time 'DoSomething() is called. This is the correct behaviour. However, in the VB.NET code, it only runs once, the code does returns on the 'Return' statement and that is it (I believe my translated VB.NET code is not invoking the thread correct. The code below is the C# code).</p> <p>Thanks.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
