Ok..so I got it to work.Had to get rid of the BGW.You were right,they were a bad idea.But i wonder why I wasn't getting any cross-threading errors.

Actually what i was trying to do is,I have a snippet code in which there are several API calls for a certain hardware device and the data that i get from this device has to be dispayed on a form and also manipulated in a database.

I want to run several instances of this code at the same time as I have more than device running at the same time performing the same operation.Also the devices will perform this operation at specific intervals.
Currently I am doing this using timers for the operation interval and lists for the multiple forms.All these forms are added as control to a parent form.

I want to try to get this to work using threading,i:e; each 'device' or instance would be running in its own thread.And all the threads would be running and instance of the code in parallel.

I tried using BGW lists to create forms and run the code,but there were many complications one of which you know.
I don't know much about threading as i haven't done it before,all I know is stuff I've read online.

My questions are

1.As threading is known to improve performance and response of an application,will it do the same in this case or just make it more complicated and slower?

2.If threading is the way to go,will there be issues of thread synchronization and can all these threads run in parallel?
