Can code from a class return text to a calling forms richtextbox

I have a form that has a list box of simple processes that don't need a
visual form. The for would only have a button that said start on it if
it did.

So when I call this class and run the process For example download a
daily file from an FTP site. I want the class to update a richtextbox
on the calling form with its progess for each step.

I can't use "Dim withevents." Case 1 is my problem.

Select Case TasksListBox.Se lectedValue
Case 1 '\\\ANS Process
Dim WithEvents MyANS As New CBI.EDITASK2.AN S.Processes.ANS SendAll
MyANS.SENDALLPR ocess(rtbxStatu s)
Case 3
Dim WebMDInstClaims As New WebMDInstClaims Process
WebMDInstClaims .Show()
End Select

I tired passing the txtbox to the class but it won't show the text
while the process is running.

You're on the right lines here, but you need to let Windows get a look in
so that it can display the new text in the TextBox. I'd use the Refresh()
method on the TextBox but there are other [and, possibly, better] ways ...
