Help!

[C++ Error] IRCClient.h(200): E2034 Cannot convert 'unsigned long (__stdcall 
* (_closure )(void *))(void *)' to 'unsigned long (__stdcall *)(void *)'.

I realise its because I have defined the function within my class, but I 
really need it to be defined within my class!!  So how can I get around this 
conversion issue?  This works outstide of a class, but I would really like 
it to work in a class!

e.g.

class myClass
{
bool CreateThread()
{
 HANDLE Handle = CreateThread(NULL, 0, (LPTHREAD_START_ROUTINE)SocketThread,
                                            &adtdwParam, adtdwFlags, 
&ThreadID);

}

DWORD WINAPI SocketThread(LPVOID lpParam)
{
  //THIS DOES SOMETHING
}

};


Any help regarding how to convert the function to work like this, would be 
greatly appreciated!

Cheers

Alistair
