If there is already a call with the same caller, kill its thread, remove it from the collection and do a normal call. Was it clear enough ? Hi Mark,

This could be achieved with the following :
- create a static dictionary containing all current calls
- AsyncCall is a class containing :
* the caller (a Control eg: the button)
* the thread that executes the code

In the Async() method, add a new instance of call at the begining and remove it at the end.

If there is already a call with the same caller, kill its thread, remove it from the collection and do a normal call.

Was it clear enough ?
