Hi and Thanks for all replies

Textbox1 0 - 36

Textbox2 36 - 44

Textbox3 44 - 68

if the Textbox1 = 45 then

automatically Textbox1 will change to 36 then

Textbox2 will change to 8 and then

Textbox3 will change to 1 so its all added to 45 again but in different Boxes

this is not just for one number any number up to 68 will need to do the same thing

if Textbox1 equaled to 36 then Textbox2 and Textbox3 will be empty

hope I am clear

Thankyou very much this will help me allot:)

if val(text1.text) > 36 then
text2.text = val(text1.text) - 36
if val(text2.text) > 44 then
text3.text = val(text2.text) - 44
text2.text = 44
end if
text1.text = 36
elseif val(text1.text) = 36 then
text2.text = ""
text3.text = ""
end if

this kind a works but I am having trouble with text3

if I input 45 to text1

output is

text1 = 36
text2 = 9
text3 = nothing at all!

I want it so

text1 = 36
text2 = 8
text3 = 1

but this number is not static

if I enter 34 I would only get two boxes that add up to 34 first box would have to be 36 then secound would be 4 makes 34 in total


let me put it this way its bit more understandable


Textbox1 1 - 36 -- so only 1 to 36 numbers can appear

Textbox2 36 - 44 -- so only 1 to 8 numbers can appear

Textbox3 44 - 68 --so only 1 - 24 numbers can appear


Thanks :-)

Since textbox2 can only show 1 ~ 8 then code in the keypress code of the number keys 1 ~ 8, if any higher number tries to get inserted then subtract 8 from the higher number and pass it on the textbox3.

I will look around for this info, my explanation is no good I know.

Your pseudo code is telling you what to do though. You just need to do some math.


If val(text2.text) > 44 then

Don't you want,

If val(text2.text) > 8 then
'do something else... not what you have

Remember, your code runs from top to bottom (as a beginner), each row of code gets ran one line at a time.

Pseudo Code,

If text1 > 36 then
text2 = text1 - 36
text1 = 36
elseif text1 < 36
end sub 'no further need to run the rest of the code
If text2 > 8 then
text3 = text2 - 8
text2 = 8
elseif text2 < 8
end sub 'no further need to run the rest of the code

text2 and text3 will be left blank if needed, you can also code in to make these boxes 0 instead of blank if you like. It appears that you need the simplest code for a project, it can get more complicated though.

Do you not have a text4 TOTAL box? How is each box getting focus, if needed, through the use of the Enter Key or the Tab Key or just let the code do all the work?
