Dundee, I always make my thief a fighter/thief in order so that they can use bows. I, too, rarely put them in battle but it sure helps when they can use a bow and not just stand around. For what it is worth here was my party:

Half-elf Ranger
Dwarf Fighter
Human Cleric
Halfling Fighter/Thief
Gnome Cleric/Illusionist
Elf Fighter/Mage

* 4 Fighters, 2 Clerics, 2 Mages, and 1 Thief. All fighter classes had bows,
both clerics used slings. Both my hafling and elf would pepper with arrows when my half-elf and dwarf had to go toe to toe. Of course my elf would cast spells when needed.

This party combination was extremely effective. The gnome and the elf saved my party more times than I can count.
