I'd hope that the event handler for a signal event could elect to throw an exception; it could even be the default. But the exception has to get into the thread somehow-- exceptions don't autonomously happen, and they require considerable cooperation from the thread on which the exception occurs. High-priority events are that mechanism through which the code which will throw the exception can interrupt normal program execution. -- Gordon Henriksen IT Manager ICLUBcentral Inc.
