ahhh, now I understand. what the hoo I'll give it a crack, I'm about to transpose my app from DX9 to DX11 now that I have windows 7, so I need the practice.

nah I use a few threads, this app needs to be completly independant of the app being debugged. I solved the problem with registered messages and memory file maps. A thread in an app that has its process terminated also dies.

VB6 was great that was what I started with, then I moved to C++ and people call it the lazy programmers language... yeah right. That process explorer was useful I could see my threads in one process and directx in the other, would have answered my question also. cheers

Cheers, thats what I thaught, my other approach was to use boolean or smaller values to do 'atomic' syncronisation but it seems many systems may not write words in one cycle which is interesting as a uni lecturer once told me it was safe on x86 machines.
