Ok, here's a solution to this false dilemma.

From MSDN:
The CreateProcess function creates a new process and its primary thread. The new process...

So:

CREATE CLASS message AS process
...

lo_Message = CREATEOBJECT("message")
DECLARE CreateProcess IN kernal32...
lo_message.creator = "Jim Booth"
lo_message.subject = "Do Not Respond"
lo_message.id = "307482"
CreateProcess(JimSMessage,...

I have a great proof of the above dilemma resolution but this posting is too small to fit it...

(and I don't want to figure out the struct's, I'll leave that to you George you can put it in you API book <g> )

Or maybe just use CreateThread, and leave the original non-post out of it alltogether hmmm.

Ok, I really need to go on vacation now :)

Sorry, my background is in philosophy and I don't get to use this stuff too much in my day to day job, so I am taking advantage of this non-thread to talk about False Dilemma's, Wittgenstein, Godel, Fermat, and Zen, thanks for the fun George, hope you have a great holiday!

Best,
Bill
