How To Get Control Value From BackGroundWorker

Question

I want to access control (eg: textbox, label etc ) value from backgroundworker. I can easily set control value from backgroundworker. But now need get method to retrieve control value.

Here is my code...

Private Sub mySQLgetSET_DoWork(sender As Object, e As DoWorkEventArgs) Handles mySQLgetSET.DoWork

    Dim lCount As Integer
    Try

        If conn.State = 0 Then conn.Open()

        If conn.State = 1 Then
            mySQLgetSET.ReportProgress(1, New ControlWithText(lblNetConnection_status, "Connected"))
            lblNetConnection_status.ForeColor = Color.Green
        End If
        If conn.State = 1 Then
            If modem_count > 0 Then
                mySQLgetSET.ReportProgress(1, New ControlWithText(lblNetConnection_status, "Connected"))
                lblNetConnection_status.ForeColor = Color.Green



                mySQLgetSET.ReportProgress(1, New ControlWithText(lblloadque, "Pending request: " & lvRec.Items.Count))

                'Load data from server
                If Not lvRec.Items.Count > 0 Then
                    System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(5000)
                    Me.lvRec.Items.Clear()
                    Dim SqlCmd As String = ""
                    SqlCmd = "select * from  send_query where operator like '%GP%' and status='0'  Order by ID asc"
                    Dim cmd As MySqlCommand = New MySqlCommand(SqlCmd, conn)
                    Dim reader As MySqlDataReader = cmd.ExecuteReader()

                    While reader.Read()
                        'Add Data to Listview from backgroundworker
                        ListViewAddItem(Me.lvRec, _
                                        reader.GetString("id"), _
                                        reader.GetString("load_type"), _
                                        reader.GetString("phone"), _
                                        reader.GetString("balance"), _
                                        reader.GetString("user_id"), _
                                        Format(TimeOfDay, "HH:mm:ss"))


                        Application.DoEvents()
                        mySQLgetSET.ReportProgress(1, New ControlWithText(lbldataloading, "Loading Request: " & lvRec.Items.Count))

Usually we use backgroundworker RunWorkerCompleted event to handle data but you can have a look Virtual Treeview Implementation and specially the "#Region Asynchronous Treeview". It will solve your problem. Here is link
