Hi<br />
I am using VC#. <br />
On the main form I have a start button which calls a routine to start taking voltage measurments and displays the measured data. The full test can take several hours. I need to have another button on the form, STOP, to stop this routine at any stage. <br />
I have tried adding a button but when the main routine starts the stop button has no affect, the code here never gets called.<br />
How can I structure the program so that the buttons on the form still work.<br />

Making a stop button stop the routine.

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).
