This sounds like it would work, but I can't figure out how to use it. Do you have an example? I've tried just a quick test like this: uses windows,jwanative; Var DelayInterval : PLarge_Integer; Variable1:integer; begin DelayInterval:=1; Variable1:=NtDelayExecution(true,DelayInterval); end. It won't let me set DelayInterval with a constant, I get "Incompatible Types: got "shortint" expected "Plarge_Integer" I really don't undertand these variable types that it wants. _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
