Just to repeat myself: there were false alarms before. The interleaving you describe could equally well happen if a new signal is sent just after the old code executes WaitForSingleObjectEx and sees that a previous signal is waiting for it. Both old and new signals can be cleared by the recipient before the second signal sender gets as far as setting the event. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
