If you want to block a function until a thread is complete then don't use the thread to begin with.

If you really need the thread because you don't want to hold up the rest of the process and you still need the return value when the thread is complete then you need to use a custom event.

Honestly though it sounds like you either need to redesign your code so it doesn't need to return a value, or you need to get rid of the thread.
