c# - BackgroundWorker Return A Value?

The following code adds the numbers from 1 to 100 and returns the sum. What I'm trying to do is run the calculations in a backgroundworker and return a value. The problem with this is that returnValue is returned before DoWork completes. How can I have it wait for my background worker to complete before returning a value? (I can't seem to put the return in my DoWork...)

double returnValue = 0;

var b = new BackgroundWorker();
b.DoWork += new DoWorkEventHandler(
    delegate(object sender, DoWorkEventArgs e) {
        for(int i=0;i<100;i++){
            returnValue += (i+1);
        }
    }
);

b.RunWorkerAsync();
return returnValue;

Addendum: Would it be better to send a message pump on the same thread instead of running this on a background worker?

Also, this is just example code, my actual code takes more than a minute to complete.

Subscribe to the RunWorkerCompleted event. That event contains the return value of the background operation.

Of course, that value would be returned from inside the DoWorkEventHandler, like so:

b.DoWork += new DoWorkEventHandler(
    delegate(object sender, DoWorkEventArgs e) {
        double returnValue = 0;
        for(int i=0;i<100;i++){
            returnValue += (i+1);
        }
        e.Result = returnValue;
    }
);
