Hello Adam,
1) Resume and Suspend methods are still there, although you shouldn't use them: it's recommended the use of AutoResetEvent or other synchronization mechanisms, so that your thread decides when it can become suspended.
2)Herfried has provided you with a link for that purpose. You use Invoke or BeginInvoke methods if you want to interact with the user interface. Anyway don't hesitate to use a global variable if you need it.
Regards.

| 2) I can't see any info there regarding how to update a form in a different

| Still need to check if possibly any .begininvoke might do it.
