Thanks for the response Tom.

I have attached the code below:
As I say it updates the first time, and then the values
stay the same for each line processed. When the program
finishes, the newvalues then appear in the relevant
textboxes.

Thanks Again
Ben

Hard to say where the problem might be without seeing
your code, but try
putting in

DoEvents
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

right after you update the textboxes and before you
print.

I have a problem at present in that when I run some
simple code to update 14 textboxs on a worksheet, with
variables extracted from another worksheet (Datasheet).
Once the variables have been entered into the relevant
textboxes. The sheet is then printed.

The variable are extracted line by line on another
worksheet, entered into the textboxes on another sheet
and then printed. The next set of variables are then
extracted from the next line down (Data sheet) and then
entered into the relevant textboxes, printed, and so on
and so on.

However, the textboxes never update after the first
line
of data has been completed. Therefore I end up with 30
print outs containing exactly the same data.

Any help would be appreciatted.
