If you press charges against someone, and if in the process the police discover that you have a warrant for your arrest that remains outstanding, they have a duty to arrest you. Whether they will necessarily check you out to see if you have a warrant for your arrest is another matter. That does not always happen as a matter of course. However, there is always the risk that they will do so and you would typically be arrested on the spot.
Added; In most professionally administered law enforcement agencies it is standard practice to "run" the names of EVERYONE involved in a case through a criminal history computer check.

When the police book you in after they arrest you without a warrant can they charge you with a crime before they get a warrant in the state of Texas?
A warrant is an order for an arrest issued by the court. But many arrests do not need a warrant. If you punch someone in the face, and police are called, you will be arrested without a warrant, and one will not be needed. If say, you failed to show up in court, then a warrant for your arrest will be issued, to alert all officers that you should be arrested on sight. So the warrant itself is not the thing 'allowing' you to be arrested.

How long will someone have to wait in jail from a search warrant?
If they were arrested as a result of a search warrant being executed - it all depends on what the search warrant was for (what crime/offense) and whether the evidence being searched for was found (I'm assuming it was).
