>>I'm working on a form that has several calculated values. Some are based on other values on the form, some are counts of records in related child tables, and some are sums of records in related child tables. I have no problem with the code required, I'm just wondering where is the best place to put the code because I've thought of so many? I'd really appreciate any input on your approaches and any reasons/benefits to why you did it this way. TIA

Yes it is the simplest approach, and one of the first I thought of. However, after thinking of this approach, I thought it better to put each individual controls needed calcs in its own .Refresh event because of the number of needed calcs. This way if I want to recalc all of them I use ThisForm.Refresh, if I only need to recalc one I issue calccontrol.Refresh.

Thanks for the input and the quick response.
