This question has been asked before but not answered so I thought I'd try
again:

I have a calculation that depends upon the selections of two list boxes....

Operating System x No. of Users = A Value

When a user selects from list box 1, then list box 2, the value is
calculated correctly. When they select a different number of users from list
box 2, everything is still OK. However, if after all this they should change
their selection from list box 1, the value does not recalculate.

You have to make a different selection from list box 2 to force the
calculation to take place.

Can I create a refresh button or better still set the form to re-evaluate
automatically?

Thanks for any help.

Scotia,

I've tried your repro steps, and it works for me on my system.  Is there
anything special about any of these controls?  Connected to a secondary data
source?  Script?  Any other Rules applied, etc.?

Sounds like the problem is that list box 2 has a rule or code behind it to force a calculation while list box 1 does not. Both list boxes should cause a calculation to happen.
