Thanks. I am still using 5.0.

So could this be done using the Assign method? When the value in one control changes, the code sparks and changes the value of another field.

When it changes (ProgrammaticChange), initiate a method that re-displays the other TextBox that is a character field showing iif(X>0, "+" + str(X), str(X)). You get the idea.
