Your work around works great!:-) And - it aint that painful. I added the suggested nTextValue as a form property (value 0) and assigned it as a TextBox controlsource for the numeric textboxes.

I reported the bug through the "send feedback" link in the textbox help screen.

Thanks Sergey!

>>I thought that was the case with Help. I have thought about adding a property to the textbox. This project is visual for base classes, so as soon as I hangup, I am going to try:
>>this.controlsource=this.value - whats a few more lines of code in the SCX:-)
