Scenario:

I have a windows form that holds a DataGridWiew with 3 pre-defined columns. I have 3 variables declared outside the function and assigned to inside the function. I have a function that enumerates stuff and puts it in the 3 columns, line by line:

string VARIABLE1;
string VARIABLE2;
string VARIABLE3;

private void FunctionEnumerateStuff()
{
    foreach (StuffObject STUFF in StuffCollection)
    {
       VARIABLE1 = STUFF.SubStuff1.ToString();
       VARIABLE2 = STUFF.SubStuff2.ToString();
       VARIABLE3 = STUFF.SubStuff3.ToString();
       DatagridWiew1.Rows.Add(VALUE1, VALUE2, VALUE3); 
    }
}

What I want to do, is to execute this function from a BackGroundWorker process, so that the GUI of the application will be smooth and responsive. I have read up on backgroundworkers but I am having trouble relating, because all examples seems to be of entirely different scenarios and most of them are overwelmingly complex.

San some helpful pedagogic soul help me and others with a very basic example of how to get this to work in the simplest way possible. Thanks.
