Hello all,in my application there is a small part of function,in which it will read files to get some information,the number of filecount would be utleast 50,So I thought of implementing threading.Say if the user is giving 50 files,I wanted to separate it as 5 *10, 5 thread should be created,so that each thread can handle 10 files which can speed up the process.And also from the below code you can see that some variables are common.I read some articles about threading and I am aware that only one thread should access a variable/contorl at a me(CCriticalStiuation can be used for that).For me as a beginner,I am finding hard to imlplement what I have learned about threading.Somebody please give me some idea with code shown below..thanks in advance

file read function://
void CMyClass::GetWorkFilesInfo(CStringArray& dataFilesArray,CString* dataFilesB,

                        int* check,DWORD noOfFiles,LPWSTR path)

{

    CString cFilePath;  
    int cIndex =0;
    int exceptionInd = 0;
    wchar_t** filesForWork = new wchar_t*[noOfFiles];
    int tempCheck;
    int localIndex =0;
    for(int index = 0;index < noOfFiles; index++)
    {
        tempCheck = *(check + index);
        if(tempCheck == NOCHECKBOX)
        {
            *(filesForWork+cIndex) = new TCHAR[MAX_PATH];
            wcscpy(*(filesForWork+cIndex),*(dataFilesB +index));
            cIndex++;
        }
        else//CHECKED or UNCHECKED
        {
            dataFilesArray.Add(*(dataFilesB+index));
            *(check + localIndex) = *(check + index);
            localIndex++;
        }
    }
    WorkFiles(&cFilePath,dataFilesArray,filesForWork,
                    path,
                    cIndex);

    dataFilesArray.Add(cFilePath);
    *(check + localIndex) = CHECKED;

}
