Not true. The event model works just fine for GUI programming. The bulk of my consulting practice (for the past 13 years) has been writing high-performance GUIs running in front of numerically intensive scientific and engineering applications. Most of these run on windows - at least over the past 5 years. None of them have ever used more than a single thread. -- D. Richard Hipp <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
