sure is. if method code controls of form, have invoke (because control created ui thread, cannot access other thread).

can do:

void dowork(...) {     clipshapefile(); }  void clipshapefile() {     if(yourcontrol.invokerequired)         yourcontrol.invoke((action)(() => clipshapefile()));     else     {         //access controls     } }

otrherwise, if there no code inside your clipshapefile() access controls created on ui thread, not need code. thats it.

hope helps.
