SWF - Showing a form in a function raised by an event (Problem)

Hi,

I have a class library (in a seperate assembly) which implements
some networking featuers, now when data is received it raises an event.

The Windows.Forms client reacts to this event:

private void TextMessage_Received(TextMessage message)
{
someForm.Show();
}

when I call the .Show() method on another form (dependent on the send of the
message)
the form shows but doesn't really draw and the application hangs. (You get a
wite block on the screen where the form should be)

Now when I call the .Show() on that form in a normal way so not trough the
event,
everything works just fine

I'm guessing this has something to do with the event being another thread or
so ?

Thnx Timothy.
