Thanks Randy,
I wondered about that but did not know of a way to implement ThreadSleep().
I have tried to use your suggestion but without documentation I can't find
the lib for 
ReleaseCPU() :-
undefined reference to `HB_FUN_RELEASECPU'
Where can I find a full listing of Harbour functions etc. the site only
seems to list the basics?
