Archjtecture type question - update status on form

[DarwinIT]

I have a bit of a logistics problem. I have a form where the user will input some data and then kick off a process - which is running code from a class in another project.
I can't seem to pass the screen objects to the class because I can't include System.Windows.Forms in the class. I can't make the controls public and access them from my class either (as far as I can tell). How can I keep updating the user's screen so they know what is going on (to a certain extent) behind the scenes?

Wow. Interesting stuff but a little more than I need. Perhaps my use of the term architectural was misleading. I just want want to be able to communicate from my class where all the action is to my form where the user wants to know what's going on. The original code was doing that using thread handling. My job was to simply the code so I dumped all of the threading - which effectively lost the communication with the form.
