Mimicking text boxes

[jfrancis]

I apologize if this has been asked before, but I am very new to AdvancedHMI and struggling with getting something that should be pretty basic to work. 

I am trying to create a textbox in which a user can enter a value that will then appear in another textbox without re-entry.  Basically, I want to be able to type "test" into textbox1 and have textbox2 and textbox3 populate with "test."

Search google for stuff like this, it’s all over the place.

So you don't get scared or confused by those choices, the best event is probably the TextChanged event, to which you get by double-clicking the textbox:

Code: [Select]

    Private Sub TextBox3_TextChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles TextBox3.TextChanged
        Me.TextBox4.Text = Me.TextBox3.Text 'Have the same text
        Me.TextBox5.Text = Me.TextBox3.Text 'Have the same text
    End Sub

Or you can have it reversed for fun:

Code: [Select]

    Private Sub TextBox3_TextChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles TextBox3.TextChanged
        Me.TextBox4.Text = StrReverse(Me.TextBox3.Text) 'Have the reversed text
        Me.TextBox5.Text = StrReverse(Me.TextBox3.Text) 'Have the reversed text
    End Sub

Only in case of a palindrome the output is the same for either code (as the attached picture shows).
