Question : Need demo projects that show off Visual Studio 2010 Thread Window.

I am new to multi-threading and wold like to play around with Visual Studio 2010 and it's Thread Window.  So does anyone have a demo (or two) I can download then get to experience this part of the IDE?

Thanks,
newbieweb

Answer : Need demo projects that show off Visual Studio 2010 Thread Window.

You can try this code -- but you may need to tweak the strConn variable to build the connection string for the exact driver that you're going to use.

To use it just call the function, passing in the required parameters.  Also, you may need to have your TNSNAMES.ORA file updated.
