Robert,

What difference doest it make? Using unsupported feature is asking for trauble. Even if assign fires it doesn't mean that it fires always or that it doesn't have some side effects.

>I am sorry Sergey, I didn't mean it that way. I did read the help on the value property and it is indeed stated that the assign method is not supported for the value property. What I actually meant is for you to verify that with a textbox value_assign for some reason fires (not necessarily a supported behavior).
