Question[VB.NET 2008] How to write in a textbox from another thread Pin

Hi everybody,
I have a simple project with a form and a class in another file to manage the COM port (from the article "Smart Device Print Engine for Compact Framework" by Orkun GEDiK).
I open the COM port and I start its thread for receiving data.
I want to write the received data in a textbox in the form.
To do this, every byte I receive, I assign the value of this byte to a byte variable of the form called byt and I call from inside the loop of the thread a function in the form that stores all the bytes in a string dati (in hexadecimal format):
VB
Public Sub ScriviTesto2()
  Dim str As String

  If InvokeRequired Then
    Invoke(New Action(AddressOf ScriviTesto2))
    Return
  End If

  Try
    str = Hex(byt)
    dati &= str & " "
  Catch ex As Exception
    MessageBox.Show(ex.ToString)
  End Try
End Sub

This seems to work because if I run the code step by step I see that the string dati grows byte by byte and contains the correct values.
When there are no more bytes to receive, always from inside the loop of the thread, I call another function of the form that should write my string in a text box:
VB
Public Sub ScriviTesto3()

  If InvokeRequired Then
    Invoke(New Action(AddressOf ScriviTesto3))
    Return
  End If

  TB1.Text &= dati & vbCrLf

End Sub

...this function write nothing in the text box... why?
The string data contains the right values, is not empty.

I tried another way: I don't call the last funcion (ScriviTesto3()) but, when there are no more bytes to receive, I click a button of the form that do the same:
VB
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
  TB1.Text &= dati & vbCrLf
End Sub

In this case, when I click the button the string dati is empty... I don't know why.

I add the declaration of the involved variables:
VB
Public Class Form1
  Public byt As Byte
  Protected dati As String
...


Can anyone help me?

Thanks in advance.
