Solution 1

You can't access it when you run it in a new thread or BackgroundWorker without doing a Invoke. If your just wanting to update it from another form in the same thread, use

Form1.CheckboxName.Checked = True

(or False).

Your question isn't exactly clear...

Thanks chrisf
Actually i have to change the property of any control(suppose checkbox) in "Form1" . But right now i have moved to form2 so that i will have to write the code in "form2".

Yeah... I don't see the problem. Chris's solution still applies. If you're still having trouble, you're going to need to be a little more clear.
