    How to update Text Box2 with date 14 days after selected date in Text box1...

    So I am creating a form that that has two text boxes. I have them both set to Short Date as their format. I am trying to make it so that When a date is selected in the first text box, the second text box will automatically fill out the date of the first text box PLUS 14 days, WITHOUT clicking anywhere. Just an automatic refresh. I have been able to make it so that it will show 14 days later when I click in the text box, but I need this to update automatically after selecting the initial date. Thanks.

    Use the AfterUpdate event of the first textbox.
    If posting code please use code tags, see here.

    Thanks for the reponse.
    I tried this and the logic worked, but I still had to click in Textbox2 in order for the date to refresh. I can not find a way for it to automatically refresh

    I have tried something like this:

    As well as something like this in the Change and AfterUpdate functions:

    They all work in terms of logic, but I still have to click in Textbox2 to get it to update. I can't find a way to have the second textbox automatically refresh when I enter a date in the first.

    Is Textbox2 bound or unbound?

    It is unbound. I have also tried entering "=[textbox1+14]" so it is not unbound, but I get the same result. It will not update unless I click in that box.
