Visual Basic.NET My Application "Poor Performance"

[Joel Vazquez]

Visual Basic.NET Application RunTime Crashes and Stalls

Im a newbie if you could say in .NET ive been working with it the past
3 months and have done lots of things with it, without any prior
knowledge.

I have a few question regarding the stability of my application.
I have a synchronization application that connects to a service and
send the results to SQL Server 2000. I got all my code in just one
form.

This are the functions i have.
GetOrders()
GetPayments()
SyncCustomers()
SyncProducts()
SyncInvoices()
SyncBalances()
SetDate()

So i got a Synchronize Button and i execute them in that exact order.

Private Sub btnSync_Click(B yVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArg s) Handles btnSync.Click
'Initizalize Functions
btnSync.Enabled = False
GetOrders()
GetPayments()
SyncCustomers()
SyncProducts()
SyncInvoices()
SyncBalances()
SetDate()
End Sub

This module handle a lot of data for example i could have 1350 Orders
for a whole month, have 1000 Payments, have 5000 customers and so on.

So as you can see It handles a lot of Data.

Ok the Main Problem when the application executes you cannot use the
PC not even touch a damn mouse cause if you do the Form disappears and
the Application Crashes. Dont get me wrong if I dont use the PC it
works well and it can finish in about 15 to 30 minutes depending on
the data and internet connection.

IS there a way to call this functions better for a nicer performace?

any help is greatly appreciated.

thank you

You might want to consider executing your data operations on a seperate
thread, to avoid locking up the GPU during long operations.

Hi Joel,

Try to start the synchronization in anther thread. So the main thread can
go on without waiting for the result.

For more information about starting a new thread, please refer to
