Windows form stop responsing/updating

I write a windows form application.
In this application, I perform some operation on each file of a directory.
For monitoring , I update one TextBox control's Text with the filename which
is being processed.

My problem is:
If
(a)the processing time of one file is a little long(say 3 ~ 4 seconds) and
(b)I click at form during processing,
the cursor change to WAITING STATE and TextBox control's Text stop updating
untill all the files have been processed..

How to fix it ?

Thanks for any comment.
