Yous should send the whole code what you posted is misleading.

textbox1.textchange
private sub ' what are the conditions of the subroutine.
............
a=textbox2.text ' this looks like you are changing the value of textbox2 on the textchange event of textbox1 ?????
end sub

private sub
..........
textbox2.textchange

b=textbox1.text
' this looks like you are changing the value of textbox1 on the textchange event of textbox2 ?????

Private Sub TextBox1_TextChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.TextChanged

Dim a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, l, m As Single

a = Form3.TextBox1.Text

b = a * 10
c = a * 100
d = a * 1000
e = a * 10000
f = a * 100000
g = a * 1000000
h = a * 24.5
i = h / 12
j = i / 3
l = j / 1760
m = l / 3
Form3.TextBox2.Text = b
Form3.TextBox7.Text = c
Form3.TextBox6.Text = d
Form3.TextBox5.Text = e
Form3.TextBox4.Text = f
Form3.TextBox3.Text = g
Form3.TextBox10.Text = h
Form3.TextBox11.Text = i
Form3.TextBox12.Text = j
Form3.TextBox9.Text = l
Form3.TextBox8.Text = m
end sub

Private Sub TextBox10_TextChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox10.TextChanged

Dim a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, l, m As Single
a = h / 24.5
b = a * 10
c = a * 100
d = a * 1000
e = a * 10000
f = a * 100000
g = a * 1000000
h = Form3.TextBox10.Text
i = h / 12
j = i / 3
l = j / 1760
m = l / 3
Form3.TextBox2.Text = b
Form3.TextBox7.Text = c
Form3.TextBox6.Text = d
Form3.TextBox5.Text = e
Form3.TextBox4.Text = f
Form3.TextBox3.Text = g
Form3.TextBox1.Text = a
Form3.TextBox11.Text = i
Form3.TextBox12.Text = j
Form3.TextBox9.Text = l
Form3.TextBox8.Text = f

end sub

what i want is if textbox1 text changes then textbox2 textchange command is ignored and vice-versa

Did you consider diabling textbox1 on the textchange event of textbox2 ?

[Caligula]

Did you consider diabling textbox1 on the textchange event of textbox2 ?

do you mean disabling, yes i tried that.
what i wanted is to ignore textbox1 textchange but don't knoow if that's possible

[jblues]

Yes I meant disabling.
I am sure what you want to do can be done, but it will get more complicated.
I think you will want one textchange subroutine to govern all text change events.
so
Private Sub TextBox1_TextChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.TextChanged_TextBox2.Textchanged

Then is if then statementes within the subroutine.
Something like
if textbox1.txt = "" then commands
if textbox10.txt = "" then commands
eccc.
Hope this help.s

Tanks for the help, but i was able to do it with this.
Dim bolBlockEvents As Boolen

Private Sub TextBox1_TextChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.TextChanged

If Not bolBlockEvents Then
bolBlockEvents = True
...do your code
bolBlockEvents = False
End If

End Sub

Private Sub TextBox2_TextChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox2.TextChanged

If Not bolBlockEvents Then
bolBlockEvents = True
...do your code
bolBlockEvents = False
End If

End Sub
