C# DateTimePicker stuck in loop

I have a datetimepicker in C#. When I click on it, it expands to show a monthly calendar, when I click the left arrow to go back a month, it changes the value and calls my event. The event includes too much code to include here but it calls several functions needless to say.
The problem I'm having is that when I click that left arrow it gets stuck in some sort of loop and keeps descending through the months and I can't stop it. One of the functions that is being called contains a Application.DoEvents() and if I comment that out it doesn't get stuck in the loop, but I need that command to update another section of the interface. Any idea why this is happening?

I can duplicate it sometimes with this code, sometimes it just does it a couple times, sometimes it gets stuck in the loop.

private void DateTimePickerValueChangedEvent(object sender, EventArgs e) 
{ 
afunction(); 
} 

private void afunction() 
{ 
listView1.Clear(); 
panel1.Visible = true; 
Application.DoEvents(); 
}

I also have the same problem. In my case, instead of calling DoEvents I'm updating a Crystal Report view. The only workaround I found is to update my view upon the CloseUp event instead of ValueChanged or TextChanged.

Scott, how did you finally corrected your problem ?
