Since vb doesn't copy the "&" sign if it's not typed "&&" i need to replace the text in textbox3 that contains the "&" with "&&".Problem is it doesn't replace it

Code:

  If TextBox3.Text.Contains("&") Then             TextBox3.Text.Replace("&", "&&")         End If

Is This A Good Question/Topic? 0

Strings are immutable so you need to set the textbox's Text to the revised version:

TextBox3.Text = TextBox3.Text.Replace("&", "&&")

I trust that this is not the actual name of your textbox(?).

Yes that's the name of the textbox why is it so bad to let it default?

Because it is meaningless. If you end up with 10 textboxes, named TextBox1..TextBox10 how will you be able to understand your code?

I still use prefixes: txtFirstName, txtPassword, etc.. If you rename it in the Properties Window, Visual Studio is likely to rename every occurrence of the old name in your code.
