Hi experts, 
I ran into problems, using this: 
DWORD priority = TranslatePriority(&quot;Low&quot;); 
AfxBeginThread(WorkThread,this,int(priority),0); 
For some strange reason this crashes. 
Any ideas? 
 
Priority is generated from a CComboBox like this: 
DWORD CAutoPeaksDlg::TranslatePriority(string str){ 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;DWORD ret = IDLE_PRIORITY_CLASS; 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;if(str == &quot;Highest&quot;) 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;ret = REALTIME_PRIORITY_CLASS; 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;if(str == &quot;High&quot;) 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;ret = HIGH_PRIORITY_CLASS; 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;if(str == &quot;Above Normal&quot;) 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;ret = ABOVE_NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS; 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;if(str == &quot;Normal&quot;) 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;ret = NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS; 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;if(str == &quot;Below Normal&quot;) 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;ret = BELOW_NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS; 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;if(str == &quot;Low&quot;) 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;ret = IDLE_PRIORITY_CLASS; 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;return(ret); 
} 
Thanks,
