  Hi, I am writing some code that needs to process very quickly, during this process I need to log actions & its progress.
  
  I am new to async (multi threading) & wanted some help creating a log function that can be called from my main code loop so it wouldn't slow it down.
  
  Can anyone point me in the direction of a good article that has a real world example of how to create an async function & pass in parameters (or post code)?
  
  example of what i am trying to do:
  
  Public Sub DoSomeWork()
  
  for each item as Object in AListOfObjects
      '//Do some processing with this object
      SharedObject.WriteToLog("Object #" & Object.Id.ToString,"status","OK")
      '// prehaps some more code
  Next
  '// perhaps some more code here too
  End Sub
  
  'In a global shared class
  Public Shared Sub WriteToLog(objectId as string, status as string,result as string)
  '// this call needs to be async so the calling code can continue without having to wait for this to complete
  End Sub
  
  Any help is much appreciated.
