I have an app that allows the user to build a query and then click on a 
button to execute the query and the results are then used to fill a grid. 
Can I have the retrieval run in a backgroundworker and have a button that 
would allow the user to cancel the query if it is running for too long of a 
period?  Is the BackgroundWorker able to populate a grid which is running in 
the primary thread?
