Do threads run asynchronously of each other? I read that they don't. One thread runs for a bit, then stops and another thread runs and stops and the 1st one runs again. It's not true multitasking. Is there a way to make them both run at the same time?

I want to create a Windows app in C# that does some simple DB stuff, such as adding a new employee. When this program starts, it also creates another thread(?) that periodically accesses the database (ex. sql server) and does some stuff to it. This background process would wake up every 10 min, for example, does what it needs to do, then goes to sleep for 10 min. The process has to run asynchronously to the main app.<br />
<br />
What I'm looking for is a prototype of this main app/background process. Thanks.

Need to create background process to do DB management

A font is a particular size, weight and style of a typeface. Each font is a matched set of type, one piece (called a "sort") for each glyph, and a typeface consists of a range of fonts that share an overall design. With the advent of digital typography, font is frequently synonymous with typeface, although the two terms do not necessarily mean the same thing. In particular, the use of "vector" or "outline" fonts means that different sizes of a typeface can be dynamically generated from one design. Each style may still be in a separate "font file" -- for instance, the typeface "Futura" may include the fonts "Futura roman", "Futura italic", "Futura bold" and "Futura extended" —- but the term "font" might be applied either to one of these alone or to the whole typeface.

C# is an object-oriented programming language created in conjunction with Microsoft’s .NET framework. Compilation is usually done into the Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL), which is then JIT-compiled to native code (and cached) during execution in the Common Language Runtime (CLR).
