I've got this working:
The Thread:
<br />
<small>UINT CheckMessages(LPVOID Param)<br />
{<br />
CString tekst = "This is a tekst or maybe a structure";<br />
::PostMessage((HWND)Param, WM_DATARECEIVED, (WPARAM)&tekst, 0);<br />
return 0;<br />
}</small><br />
The header:
<br />
<small>protected:<br />
afx_msg void OnDataReceived(WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam);<br />
DECLARE_MESSAGE_MAP()</small><br />
The Function:
<br />
<small>BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(CPLCClientView, CFormView)<br />
ON_MESSAGE(WM_DATARECEIVED, OnDataReceived)<br />
END_MESSAGE_MAP()<br />
<br />
...<br />
<br />
...<br />
<br />
void CMyClass::OnDataReceived(WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)<br />
{<br />
CString tekst = (CString)wParam;
AfxMessageBox(tekst);<br />
}</small>
If i execute this i get a weird looking character(because i get a number with wParam), how can i send the CString towards my function?

Where you cast the wParam to a CString, I think you should cast it to a CString* instead. You will find however that this too will not work as you expect though. By the time you execute the message handler, OnDataReceived, the thread proc will have already finished and the instance of a CString on the stack will no longer exist. I would suggest that you 'new' a CString in the thread proc and then 'delete' the CString in the OnDataReceived method.

can't i send the CString with the Message toward the function (like OnPaint sends a point value with it's message) so that it would look a little like this:
<small>void CPLCClientView::OnDataReceived(CString tekst)<br />
{<br />
AfxMessageBox(tekst);<br />
}</small>

Since you're dealing with user defined messages, no. Sending your own message and handling it with ON_MESSAGE requires you to provide a function declarated like that you did before (with WPARAM and LPARAM as parameters). Only then the message is handled correctly. It's not comparable to messages like WM_PAINT. These are special messages handled by corresponding functions which for sure can have other parameter types.
In fact, you should do it the way described before by creating your CString on the heap (calling new) and passing it as WPARAM to your function.

how do you mean this precisly? like this:
CString tekst = new CString;
and,
after i created the tekst, do i have to delete it?

in your thread:
CString *tekst = new CString("blablabla");<br />
<br />
PostMessage(hWnd, WM_MYMESSAGE, (WPARAM)tekst, 0);
in MyFunc:
...
CString* pStr = (CString*)wParam;<br />
<br />
do_sth_with_string<br />
<br />
delete pStr;

No you can not pass parameters for user defined messages in that way.
I would suggest that you thoroughly read this article[^]. It is one of the best on this site explaining multi-threading and how to deal with the many issues.

With the introduction of "hyper threading" CPU's, good luck...
But to find out how many CPU's the system thinks are available, you can use GetSystemInfo.

Yea, for now, but on Windows Server 2003 you can use GetLogicalProcessorInformation()

How can I execute an exe from my VC++ 6 application?
Thanks

Use ShellExecute.

Could you give me an example?
Thanks

Do look at the link in my other post (point 6.4 in Michael Dunn's C++ FAQ). You have all the examples you need to achieve what you need.

for example, if you want to execute notepad.exe from your dialog, use following statement:
<br />
ShellExecute(m_hWnd, "open", "c:\\WINNT\\notepad.exe", NULL, "c:\\WINNT", SW_SHOWNORMAL);<br />
