This is the way to do it: RAISEEVENT(thisform.spinner1, "DownClick") RAISEEVENT(thisform.spinner2, "DownClick")

This prevents the value from going out of range and eliminates the need to know the direction of the change in process. I was not aware of RaiseEvent before reading your post. I think it will solve my problem but haven't figured out the proper syntax. Below is what I have in the click event of the down button. The commented lines work when enabled but ignore the range limits of the control. Both of the active lines throw errors. Can you correct my syntax? Thanks, Joe *thisform.spinner1.Value = thisform.spinner1.Value -1 *thisform.spinner2.Value = thisform.spinner2.Value -1 RAISEEVENT(thisform.spinner1, thisform.spinner1.DownClick) RAISEEVENT(thisform.spinner2, DownClick) thisform.refresh On Fri, Mar 14, 2014 at 4:08 AM, Dave Crozier <[email protected]> wrote: > Do you call the methods directly or use RaiseEvent()?
