I certainly will try it out later this evening (studying for my
certification right now) but is there any more detailed/advanced
explanation about why I can't run a bunch of code in a thread and at
the end of the thread start a dialog? Why I have to start a nested
thread with just the dialog creation? :s Still don't really get the
reason why...

Anyway thx in advance for giving me a possible working solution, and
I'll certainly keep you informed if it did the job for me (later this
evening).
