Sorry, but VB6 and below are not designed to work with a free threading model. They are designed to be single threaded. VB5 was able (with some tweaking and some luck) to use the CreateThread API, but Microsoft "fixed" that. Even whan it did work, it was not 100% reliable. You can play some tricks in VB to simulate multithreading, but there is no 100% reliable method to create free threads.
On the plus side however, VB.Net (due out this fall) will allow you to easily create free threads reliably. I have been using the Beta version of VB.Net, and the thread creation and manipulation seems to be working great.
I would suggest this . . . if you really need multithreading right now, go to C++. If you can wait for a few more months, then use VB.Net when it comes out.
