void DoSomeThreadSafeWork(IWorkbookSet workbookSet)
        {
            // Interrupt background calculation if necessary and acquire an
            // exclusive lock on the workbook set.
            workbookSet.GetLock();
 
            try {
                // Do some work...
            }
            finally {
                // Release the lock on the workbook set and start background
                // calculation if appropriate.
                workbookSet.ReleaseLock();
            }
        }
Sub DoSomeThreadSafeWork(ByVal workbookSet As IWorkbookSet)
            ' Interrupt background calculation if necessary and acquire an
