[RESOLVED] replacing characters in textbox (including special characters)

[marl]

Hi,

Please help me a little bit as I'm stuck.

I have two textboxes. I type in one of them and the text gets copied in real time into another textbox. There is one catch. I need to replace specific character with something else.

If I enter a quote " in textbox1, it has to be replaced with \" in textbox2.

I started with something like the below code, but obviously this does not work (tried different stuff - this is for demonstration only). In the example below 'a' represents " , and 'b' represents \"

Private Sub TextBox1_KeyUp(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.KeyUp

        TextBox2.Text = TextBox1.Text

        If TextBox2.Text.Contains("a") Then
            TextBox2.Text.Replace("a", "b")
        End If

End Sub

In other words... whenever I enter the quote character into the textbox1 I want it to be replaced in textbox2 with a backslash+quote.

Example of my goal:

text in textbox1: Where "Glogow" is?
text in textbox2: Where \"Glogow\" is?


Can this be done ?
