I am to call "SetpriorityClass (thread, ABOVE_NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS) and it returns with an error - invalid handle on the GetLastError(). THis same handle to the thread is used in an immediate statement pthread->SetThreadPriority and all is well.

I thought maybe I didn't have the correct values to Query and Set this in the DACL but I have not figured out how to set that easily - it is quite messy and not simple examples.

Anyway know why the SetPriorityClass does not work?If is is a permissions problem on the thread (which I create quite standardly with "afxBeginThread")?

Thanks in advance.
