>I think you are supposed to Synchronize() with the main thread first.

Hello Bob, I updated my code with your suggestions but to no avail..... as
in:

while (!Terminated && ClientSocket->Connected)
{
        if (pStream->WaitForData(6000))
        {
           ReadPacket(pStream);
           Synchronize(DoStuffOnMainForm);

        }
}


void __fastcall TMyServerThread::DoStuffOnMainForm(void)
{
        AnsiString FileName = "Hello World";
        Strm2 = new TMemoryStream;
        Strm2->Clear();
        BinaryTransfer1->SendTextMessage(Strm2, FileName);
        ClientSocket->SendBuf(Strm2->Memory, Strm2->Size);
}

I also replaced char *Buffer[256] with char * Buffer = new
char[BytesToReceive];

Are you saying that there are times that ClientSocket->OnRead will execute
in the main thread?  If so what would cause it to alternate between
executing in a seperate thread and executing in the main thread?

That's the event my code is executing in
