changed with code, onchange event not triggered

[boomer1974]

Hello all, I could really use some help on this one. I have a text box that is changed using code and I want the color of the text to change depending whether the number is positive or negative. the problem is, apparently the onchange event does not fire if it is changed by code. does anyone know of a work-around for this.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi!

Try this:

YourTextBox = YourValue
Call YourTextBox_Change

I may not understand what you are suggesting but called a function with "yourTextBox_Change" in it and I get an error - cannot find "YourTextBox_Change"

Thanks,
Ryan

Hi Ryan!

You must replace YourTextBox with the actual name of your text box. Assuming you are in the same form, this will call the change procedure of the text box in question. This will work for a combo box also.
