  Dave,

  I found out how to add "^-" on click of button to maskedtextbox without it removin the text that was typed in. the Code is below:

  Private Sub Button22_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button22.Click

  Me.MaskedTextBox1.Text = "^-" & MaskedTextBox1.Text

  End Sub

  However, The text "^-" is added at the begining in the Masked textbox, for e.g.

  I type in Xp0gam3r, and I want the "^-" to show up after the letter r, ut instead, it shows up before the text Xp0gam3r.

  Any ideas on how to fix this problem

  you simply switch them round!

  Me.MaskedTextBox1.Text = MaskedTextBox1.Text & "^-

  you could do that but the specific question was using a clipboard therefore I showed an example of using a clipboard.

  Clipboard

  What's wrong with

  Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
  MaskedTextBox2.Text = "I am saying " & MaskedTextBox1.Text
  End Sub

  and why use a masked text box anyway

  Or have I lost the plot completely

  If you want quote marks to show you have to use two of them, e.g.

  TextBox1.Text = " ""This is a test"" "

  answer 1)

  double click the button to make a click event. Then....

  Me.textbox.Text = "^1"

   

  answer 2)

  double click button to make a click event. Then....

  ClipBoard.SetText(Me.textbox1.Text)

  Me.textbox2.AppendText("I am saying " & ClipBoard.GetText())

  Well, instead of

  MaskedTextBox1.Text = "^-" & MaskedTextBox1.Text

  just use

  MaskedTextBox1.Text = MaskedTextBox1.Text & "^-"

  or use appendtext

  MaskedTextBox1.AppendText("^-")
