Here is the code (the code is in two files: one for Form1 and one for MyThread):

VB
Imports System.Threading

Public Class Form1
  Dim MyNewThread As Thread

  Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
    'create the thread 
    MyNewThread = New Thread(AddressOf MyThread.MyThreadExecute)
    MyNewThread.Name = "NuovoThread"
    'start the thread
    MyNewThread.Start()   'no "Me" parameter
  End Sub

  Public Sub AggiornaLabel(ByVal What As String)
    If InvokeRequired Then
      Invoke(New Action(Of String)(AddressOf AggiornaLabel), New Object() {What})
      Return
    End If

    Label1.Text = What
  End Sub

End Class


Public Class MyThread
  Private Shared miii As Int32 = 0

  Public Shared Property iii() As Int32
    Get
      Return miii
    End Get
    Set(ByVal value As Int32)
      miii = value
    End Set
  End Property

  Public Shared Sub MyThreadExecute(ByVal Origin As Object)
  'Public Shared Sub MyThreadExecute()
    Dim OriginForm As Form1 = CType(Origin, Form1)
    'Dim OriginForm As Form1 = New Form1()
    Do
      iii = iii + 1
      OriginForm.AggiornaLabel(iii.ToString)
      Thread.Sleep(100)
    Loop
  End Sub
End Class


if I remove the "origin" parameter as in the commented lines in the code above the error disappears and I can run the application on the device but the label is not updated because the condition "If InvokeRequired Then" is alwais false (as it was in the first example I posted).
Perhaps I have not removed the "origin" parameter in a consistent manner (I have more then one doubt about the line "Dim OriginForm As Form1 = New Form1()"...)

About passing a parameter in an object when I start the thread, I can't do this because in the Compact Framework (not the full .NET) only the method Thread.Start() is supported, the method Thread.Start(Object) is not supported.
Perhaps this is another reason why the code doesnt work: the MyThreadExecute-method has no "connection" with Form1 and so in Form1 InvokeRequired is false.

ps: I thank you for your patience...
