By prepending "::" to the beginning, you are forcing the compiler to call the version of GetCurrentThread() that is in the global namespace. Microsoft uses the global namespace for all API functions and structures. IOTAProcess60's copy of GetCurrentThread() is not in the global namespace. Besides, IOTAProcess60 is a class (well, an interface). You cannot call IOTAProcess60::GetCurrentThread() without invoking it via a pointer to an IOTAProcess60 instance. The only way you can call GetCurrentThread() by itself and have it invoke IOTAProcess60::GetCurrentThread() is if you are writing your own class that is derived from IOTAProcess60 and then call GetCurrentThread() from inside a method of your class. Then IOTAProcess60::GetCurrentThread() would be getting called via the class's 'this' pointer. However prepending "::" to GetCurrentThread() would still force the compiler to call the GetCurrentThread() this is in the global namespace, not the IOTAProcess60::GetCurrentThread() method. Gambit
