Andy...

Have you tried, in the VALID or INTERACTIVECHANGE of txtBoxA:

WITH THISFORM

.txtBoxG.Refresh()
.txtBoxH.Refresh()

ENDWITH

and then in the Refresh of G and H:

THIS.Enable = (THISFORM.txtBoxA.Value = xData)

This way, G and H will be either Enabled or Disabled, depending on what you expect them to find in A.
