Use the Replace string manipulation function in VB. Start a Std Exe project, add 2 text boxes (txtEntered, txtReplaced) and a command button (cmdGo). Here's a one-liner to demonstrate. Add this code to your form:

Option Explicit

Private Sub cmdGo_Click()
txtReplaced = Replace(txtEntered, ".", "")
End Sub
