The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
Any example where you have used multiple jobs to accomplish your needs may
also a valid case for using threads.
The advantage of the threads is it allows a lighter footprint than creating
a new job, it also allows you to access job specific resources such as
qtemp.
Disadvantage is badly programmed threads can cause mayhem ;-)

Subject: multi-threading
I decided to start a new thread for the question, why? In all my
business programming I have never needed to write a multithreaded
application. I have worked with a system that has multiple
communication jobs that dump request into queues, then have multiple
server programs that process the queued entries and issue responses.
But never needed on job to handle multiple threads.
So I ask all of you for an application that requires multiple threads in
a single process. Any real world examples out there?
