I am working on creating windows.h to creat tow threads, each thread takes tow files as input, the function that each thread excute is tested and work 100%,the problem is that one thread could work at atime ?

I mean one function is excuted this is the threading code i dont know what is the problem. I tried to pass different files to each thread but its still not working

{ data_files *My_files = (data_files *)(S);      


    HANDLE  hStdout = NULL;

    // Get Handle To screen. Else how will we print?
    if( (hStdout = GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE)) == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE )  
		return 1;

    // Cast the parameter to the correct data type passed by callee i.e main() in our case.
    string text=My_files->text;
	string pattern=My_files->pattern;

		fw(text,pattern );
}
