im using the tscoketconnection component from the datasnap tool categorie to 
connect to
a datasnap server(builder 2006).

> You should not be calling Application->ProcessMessages() in a worker
> thread.

but if i dont call this in the thread when i want to show something in a 
label in the main
thread(form) then it doesnt show up,eg:(all this in my separate thread):
MainForm->Label1->Caption="connecting...";
Application->ProcessMessages();
DataModule->SocketConnection1->Connected=true;

if i dont put the processmessages it doesnt show the label.

concerning the sychronous-asychronous mode,i dont know how to change this in 
the
component im using.

maybe im using the thread in a wrong way in the first place.i have created a 
thread to do
the connecting but this new thread accesses a component(socket 
connection)from
a datamodule.is this the reason that it forces the program to freeze?
eg:

Mythread::Connect()
{
DataModule->SocketConnection->Connected=true;
}
