John,

You can't access any of the forms controls in the actual DoWork event.
You need to handle any updates during your work by calling the
ReportProgress method of the backgroundworker. This will cause the
ProgressChanged event to be raised (assuming you have set the
WorkerReportsProgress property to true). In that event it is safe to
access your forms controls.

Hi,
Tom is right, and your form elements are getting updated and accessed
during BackgroundWorker's DoWork event, that's why the reason of error
i guess.

Thanks,
