Thanks maclolm, well first of all I am really so *NEW* to Threads, and I am
not insisting on using Synchronize calls, I am open to any suggestions,
advise from anyone.

My main task is that I have a few functions that must get executed every 5
seconds, so I need to do this in a separate thread other than the main
project thread...so I really need help with how I can change the code I
posted to reach my main task...

So if you can please let me know how I can adjust the code I posted to reach
my task...

BTW I downloaded your tutorial, and it is really good, but a bit high on my
level in threads to understand, also it gives me 2 error when I try to run
the project...

[C++ Warning] main.h(75): W8027 Functions containing while are not expanded
inline
[C++ Error] main.cpp(126): E2369 Cannot use the result of a property
assignment as an rvalue

thanks for your support
