How can I get a TextBox text in another thread?

I'm doing all crazy stuff today :D I tried invoking it by 

Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(() =>
                {
                    username = UsernameInput.Text;
                });

But that does not seem to work :( And how do I also set a value cross thread?

Problem solved by sleeping the thread for a second after Dispather. Guess you have to allow the gui thread to "answer" the other thread.

I did this some time ago, don't know if it's the right way to do it but it works tho:

Invoke((MethodInvoker)delegate
{
    // Code...
});
