How to Marshal a call to Timer

Hello Esteemed Developers and Esteemed Experts,

I have a background-running-thread in my application that is designed and developed at Windows Forms (.NET) by using Visual C++ .NET Standard on Windows 2000 Professional O.S.

Whenever the required job is done in that background-running-thread, I would like to Enable and Start the Timer to do the related job from the background-running-thread.

It is written in MSDN Library that "It requires that the user code have a UI message pump available and always operate from the same thread, or marshal the call onto another thread." I understood that I need to marshal the call the starting and enabling statements.

Due to being new in Visual C++ .NET, I don't know how to marshal it.

Please kindly guide me. I thank your kind considerations in advance

Respectfully, yours
