It should work, what is the error message?

 

Where are you calling the ResetNumber() from?

[rosshodges]

Calling

 

I have have this code

 

Private Sub NumericUpDown2_ValueChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles NumericUpDown2.ValueChanged
       Mydisplay()
       ResetNumber()
       If NumericUpDown2.Value > 59 Then
           NumericUpDown3.Value += 1
           NumericUpDown2.Value = 0

'That as you can see makes the next NumericUpDown go up by
'one(its a count down timer HH:mm:ss but when it gets put up to
'23:59:59 It doesnt no what to do and gives me an error. So i
'tried this

Private Sub ResetNumber()
       If NumericUpDown1.Value = 23 And NumericUpDown2.Value = 59 And NumericUpDown3.Value = 59 Then
           NumericUpDown1.Value = 0
           NumericUpDown2.Value = 0
           NumericUpDown3.Value = 0

 

 

But it totally un does what I have done before!

the problem is that the ValueChanged event is calling ResetNumber(), then when this function changes the value of the numberUpDown the ValueChanged event is triggeres again, you probably get stuck in an endless loop.

 

try using a different event than the ValueChanged

Any ideas what i can change it to? Or the only thing i am trying to do is stop the error appearing when it reaches the limit of 23:59:59 can you think of a way without using Resetnumber()?

Resetnumber is fine, just not where it's being called from.

 

If you're using a timer, call it from the Timer_Tick event

I agree with Robby, by just changing the location of where the function is called from will fix it.

 

Resetnumber is fine, just not where it's being called from.

 

If you're using a timer, call it from the Timer_Tick event

 

If you absolutely are intent are leaving it similar to what you have, you could set up some flags that once it runs through the first time, the Resetnumber won't be called again until a later time.
