what do U mean by Main1? Is that a form?

if Main1 is a form then it has not ProcessMessages() ... that is a 
TApplication method!

This seems to work, and the form receives messages correctly! But then 
Application never stops even if I call Application->Terminate() from a 
dll function, or I call MyThread->Terminate() or I close manually the 
form... So an Exception is always thrown when my dll is unloaded it says 
"System error. Code 5. Access forbidden" :(

What can I do?
Thank U again!
