Hello,
There are MTA and STA ApartmentStates at Thread documentation in MSDN. I
could not understand the explanations in MSDN. Can you kindly explain the
differences and advantages of using MTA or STA?

MTA : Multi Threading
STA : Single Threading

This is for the cases that you use COM objects in your .NET
applications. They have no effect on .NET facilities.

Is this about to change in the 2.0 version?
