Thanks, I understand the timer event. How do I pause the program in WinForms. For a console routine you just wait for a console input. What is the similar thing to do for WinForms?

I just tried something else. I took the thread code and put it in a Class contained in the main program. As soon as I put the code in a class

public class anything
{
thread code
}

the invoke methods are not recognized.

I originally didn't have the using System.Windows.Forms statement inside the namespace, just the list of using statements at the top of the file. I put there just to see if it would work. I just removed the single using statement inside the namespace to get back to the original configuration and the result was still the same. The using System.Windows.Forms is not used - VS suggests removing all the using statements as unused - and all the Invoke methods are unrecognized.
