ICR7I wrote In my combo box when I choose a different item it also works again it just won't automatically do it when you type a quantity in.

You need to handle the TextChanged event of the QuantityBox TextBox and update the CostOfAllItems in there. Something like this:


Private Sub QuantityBox_TextChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles QuantityBox.TextChanged
    CostOfAllItems.Text = QuantityBox.Text * CostOfItem.Text
End Sub


You see thats what I was doing but it just wont work if I put it there it gives me an error.

Edit : Never mind, not sure that would work

private void UpdatedPrice()
{
Put all your code from the selected index change here
}


and then put UpdatePrice(); inside the selected index change and text change.

if you have teamviewer or something I could show you

My guess is that the Event Handler forthe TextBox wasn't set properly, who knows Good you got it working, if you need any more help feel free to PM me
