Thanks!<br />

I think the problem is that I had it in the create event (when the form might not even have a handle yet!)..<br />
<br />
But this code looks useful.... Thanks!

And don't forget to destroy the event object in the end:<br />
<br />
TermEvent.Free;

I don't agree with you. It must do 'MyProcedure' 1st, and then do the rest. Try debugging and look how it moves. It can only do so if 'MyProcedure' is a thread.<br />
<br />
But where's the return value of it? Shouldn't it the 1st line say:<br />
MyInt := MyProcedure;<br />
and then use the value in the next line.

I have a procedure that loads settings for colors...<br />
<br />
I call the procedure, then I use RichEdit1.Selattributes.Co<wbr />lor like so:<br />
<br />
MyProcedure; {Gets MyInt - Color for text}<br />
RichEdit1.Selattributes.Co<wbr />lor := MyInt;<br />
RichEdit1.Lines.Add('MyTex<wbr />t');<br />
<br />
The problem is, the &quot;MyProcedure&quot; isn't done before the app moves to the next line!<br />
<br />
I've tried:<br />
MyProcedure; {Gets MyInt - Color for text}<br />
Application.ProcessMessage<wbr />s;<br />
RichEdit1.Selattributes.Co<wbr />lor := MyInt;<br />
RichEdit1.Lines.Add('MyTex<wbr />t');<br />
<br />
<br />
But that doesn't help!<br />
<br />
How can I call the procedure, WAIT until it's finished, then call the rest without writing an entire new procedure?<br />

Execute procedure, wait until finished, resume.
