Default Multithreading

Hi

I have an add-in that presents the user with a VB form. The form allows the
user to supply a filter for messages to move to an archive folder. I want to
provide feedback on the progress of the move process via a progress bar. Can
I safely use a backgroundworker to farm off the move process and update the
progress bar using the backgroundworker's reportprogress method.

Basically, is moving items safe when executed from a backgroundworker ?

Cheers
