C# is a great language and .NET is a great platform. I'd give it a try and see how you like it. You can still access with Win32\64 API through C# and use pointers and do things you wouldn't expect from a managed language. I wrote software in C and C++ when I used DOS as my development platform but when I started writing for Windows I found that it was tedious and less enjoyable to program in C or C++. C/C++ is perfect for system programming, but I'd give C# a try just for fun.

Apparently he works with noisy smokers... Most of us try to be more discrete about it; no snorting, rolling on the floor gagging, no pointing and laughing at the silly non-smokers in the clean-room.

The original thread creates the event. The second thread OPENS the event, and can signal it just fine. Otherwise, the secondary thread can receive the handle to the event too, if you wanted. It should have no problem signaling the event, whether or not it has a message queue.
Any sufficiently gross incompetence is nearly indistinguishable from malice.

I don't think you can count on the connection remaining open for that long a period if the app is on a different machine than the database. what I did in one of my apps was to check for that specific error that indicates the connection is not open, then try to re-open the connection without sending the user any indication. if the re-open fails, then I let the error message continue as usual My articles www.stillwaterexpress.com BlackDice
