Multi Tasks

Is there a way in VB to handle multi-threaded processing?
I have winsock data arrival routines that I want to operate, and
timers, and dxcallback audio routines, and I would like for them to be
able to interrupt/multi-thread each other.
I know VB is inherently not multi-threaded... but....
Maybe someone who has done multi-tasking with VB has a little guidance.
The data values are already protected between the different events,
just need to find out how to make a timer pre-emptive, and a
dxcallback pre-emptive, etc.

Thanks,
John

PLACE THAT ANYWHERE THAT IT CAN BE INTERRUPTED. IT ALLOWS THE PROGRAM OR
THE COMPUTER TO DO OTHER THINGS EXCEPT WHATEVER IT IS WORKING ON AT THAT
MOMENT.
