So what exactly to you need help with? Everything???

There are several ways to do this. Assuming this is a school assignment for a beginning class, you proabably will be using the Instr and Mid$ functions.

Look those up and experiment with them, and you will learn how to do this.

try this...

Private Sub Command1_Click()
    Dim iSPos As Integer
    Dim iEPos As Integer
    Dim iNextSPos As Integer
    Dim iNextEPos As Integer
    Dim iLength As Integer
 
    iNextSPos = 1
    iNextEPos = 1
    iLength = Len(Trim(Text1.Text))
    Do While i <= iLength
        iSPos = InStr(iNextSPos, Text1.Text, "I ", vbTextCompare)
        If iSPos > 0 Then
            iEPos = InStr(iNextEPos, Text1.Text, " to ")
            If iEPos > 0 Then
                Text2.Text = Text2.Text & Mid(Text1.Text, iSPos, (iEPos + 3) - iSPos) & vbCrLf
                iNextSPos = iEPos + 3
                iNextEPos = iEPos + 3
                i = i + iEPos
            Else
                i = i + 1
            End If
        Else
            i = i + 1
        End If
    Loop

Thanks for great help

i changed it to be perfect with lines may contains more than one case of the condition

Dim TxT, IStr, ToStr, ILoc, ToLoc, GLoc, Strng
BeStr = " i "
ThisStr = " to "
GLoc = 1
TxT = Text1.Text
For oop = 1 To (Len(TxT) - 1)
    ILoc = InStr(GLoc, TxT, IStr, vbTextCompare)
    If ILoc > 0 Then
    
        ToLoc = InStr(GLoc, TxT, ToStr, vbTextCompare)
        If ToLoc > 0 Then
            GLoc = ToLoc + 1
            Strng = Mid$(Text1.Text, ILoc + 1, (ToLoc + 3) - ILoc)
            Text2.Text = Text2.Text & Strng & vbnewline
        Else
        oop = oop + 1
        End If
    Else
    oop = oop + 1
    End If
Next
End Sub
