Can someone explain why the following will not give you the information expected.

Example: A grid with 3 columns, one uses the down arrow to advance from row to row in column2 and as a value is entered in Column2 the following calculation is made for column3

This.Parent.Parent.Column3.Text1.value =;
This.Parent.Parent.Column1.Text1.Value * This.Value

will not work unless the command:
This.Parent.Parent.Column1.Text1.Refresh() is issued before the above command.

Thanks in advance.
