Thanks Trev for your quick reply!

I'm just trying to make a distinction between the Windows API options to POST vs. SEND a Windows event. I'd really rather avoid trying to start a new thread. I want the work to occur on this thread, just AFTER the application returns to the Windows message handler and after Windows processes anything else that entered the message queue before my POST. So, for example, if I put a "MsgBox" in my form's load event, the message box displays, then when I press OK the form displays. But what if I want the message box to display immediately after my form displays?

Is this not a valid technique with VB?

Thanks - Jeff
