I'm new to Visual basic and going through a set of beginner tutorials.

I've made a form with textboxes.

Question: When I scroll through all the textboxes and return to the first one - how do I write the code to say "clear the box and make it empty"
I think it's an If..else statement but after days of frustration and searching online, I still can't find the answer!!
Regards,
Steve

~~In VB 6.0 remove existing text from Caption property.~~

In VB2005 remove exsiting text from Text property.

In VB6 caption is for a label not a textbox. There is no caption property for a textbox.

textbox.text="" like ColdFusion said should work for any VB textbox.
