Is multi threading needed as two processes are going on at the same time. Peter    Report

In the handler function increase the progress of progress control bar. I think you dont need use threads. If you have any confusions u r welcome to ask Best Regards -Yasir    Report

So what you can do is create a seprate thread for upload a file on FTP.    Report
