Whether this may be improved upon is another matter. Let's see... Perhaps "Critical" is the best English substitute (not a synonym, as it's part of the original). The point is that threads of this class will take precedence even over foreground server. Unlike foreground server, these threads cannot be interrupted by any other class for any reason. > Thank you in advance. > HTH PS - I'm also somewhat confused concerning process priority as it pertains to VDMs. AFAIK, the only control over VDMs is delta, and this may only be set in the DOS SETTINGS, prior to session start. I thought all VDMs were class 2 priority, and the delta applied to all active VDMs in the system. More investigation needed for this, I guess. -- Lewis
