Hello
I have 3 textboxes on a form. I want to allow the user to change one of them
and for the other 2 to automatically update. My code looks something like
this:

Box1_Change
Box2.value = ........
Box3.value = ........
end

However, when I set the values on the other boxes I start their Change
methods and I end up in an infinite loop. I have tried an
"Application.EnableEvents = False" to avoid this but it didn't work. Any
ideas on how to avoid this situation?

Thanks,
Steve

Steve,
EnableEvents does not function in UserForms.
You can use a boolean flag to the same end however.
Declare a private variable at the top of the form module..

Private blnEnable As Boolean

In the Box1_Change code...
Box1_Change
blnEnable = True
Box2.value = ........
Box3.value = ........
blnEnable = False
End Sub

At the start of the Box2 and Box3 change code...
If blnEnable then Exit Sub
