What about

	Me.Recalc

as the last line in the Sub ComputePay (assuming that sub is local to the form)? 

Also, have you put a Debug.Print statement inside the AfterUpdate event handler to be sure it is being called?

David:

The first three text boxes, where the problem lies, are bound (=Sum([fieldname]).  I put DoEvents into the AftertUpdate event of the text box but didn't help.  Also tried DoEvents in the Form_Update event - no soap.

I've been seeing weird repaint/refresh problems too in A2K7.

Can you try using a DoEvents after each field is updated?
