Inputbox/Output help

[nerofiend]

Im working on my first real attempt at making something in VB.Net 2002 Standard. Its a basic program and im sure is easy to do i just need to know how to get started. I have googled around but so far I dont seem to be able to find what i need, or at least i dont know if im asking the right questions for the right answers to get it.

This is what Im wanting to do. I want to make a simple program that contains several inputboxes, in those boxes the user will be able to put in anything he/she wants to put in them. Now setting up all the boxes and labels is easy but its the finished output that I have a problem doing.

Here is an example.

There will be an inputbox for the user to put a website link into. Now after they put the link into the inputbox I want to have a button they can click that will automatically add some text onto it and send it to a text document like notepad and also automatically copy it into the clipboard so they can simply paste it anywhere they want to.

Say if they put www.google.com and then hit the button I want the program to add some php code to it to make it appear as a code box instead of an active link so it would come out as ["code]www.google.com[/code"] Without the quotes of course, and send it to the notepad and the clipboard. Basically im wanting to use this as a template so that the stuff in the inputboxes can always be changed but the added code will always come out the same.

Thats the basics of it. There will be several inputboxes and I would like to make it to where they fill them all in and click a single button and it sends all of the info to the clipboard at once.

What im needing to know is what exactly would be the coding to tell it for each inputbox to make it add the extra text i need to each box and how to then tell it in one button to send it to the clipboard.

I dont want it done for me i just need to know how to tell it to do this stuff. Like i said its a small thing but for a first timer its not easy.Any help on this would really be appreciated.
