Is there a way that I can save text in a textbox to the code I've written so
that the next time I open the application the text is what I saved it to last time? Can you please guide me in the right direction? Thank you! Patrick I don't think that you would want to save it "to the code", but you could
easily save it to a file. OR ... the framework will do this for you. Do a search in Help for "settings". I think that it requires Framework 2.0 or later.

In your form "Form Closing" event put the following code: My.Settings.TextBoxData = MyTextBox.Text My.Settings.Save() When you next time load the form do something like: Private Sub Form_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load MyTextBox.Text = My.Settings.TextBoxData End Sub Hope I got your question right. This is perfect. Thank you.

But to just save
whatever a user typed into a Textbox you don't need to write a line of code. All you have to do is to use the "(Application Settings)" Property in the Designer. (At least for .NET 3.5.)
