Re: HELP: AfxBeginThread problem

You can pass one pointer. There is no reason to assume it is even possible to pass two
pointers. But if you can pass one pointer, you can pass anything you want, including a
pointer to a struct that contains two pointers. Just remember you must allocate this
object on the heap, not the stack.
