I want to actually display this: <a href="http://google.com">Google</a> in a textbox when the user clicks a command button but I can't seem to find out how to display the quotes without VB thinking that I am trying to concactanate or display another string, help!

is a list of vB codes, i think you want 'URL Hyperlinking' just scroll down that link for more information, it will turn out like this:

 

Google is here!

 

which looks like:

[ url = http://google.com ] Google is here! [ / url ]

but delete all of the spaces - every single one of em!

Do you mean vBulletin, or Visual Basic?

oh yeah, never thought of that! i spose his VB was both in CaPS so maybe he meant visual basics, just have to wait to find out!
