I'm trying to create a basic thread using AfxBeginThread() but it's
just not working and I'm pulling out my hair.  Here's what I've got...

//this is in my CSkimmerDlg somewhere to start the thread
AfxBeginThread(StartCommunication,0)
....
UINT CSkimmerDlg::StartCommunication(LPVOID p)
{//code...}
---------------------------
In my header file, I have...
public:
  UINT StartCommunication(LPVOID);

But when I try to compile, I get an error:
error C2665: 'AfxBeginThread' : none of the 2 overloads can convert
parameter 1 from type 'unsigned int (void *)'

Anyone knows what gives?  Thanks for your time.
