I have a Word 2010 form template with various text boxes, combo lists and radio buttons. I wish to take the value from one text box and insert it as the value of another text box when a Save button is invoked. I have extracted the value from the source text box with the code below but how do I then insert it as the value of the target text box? I have tried a few things including the reverse of the code below but so far without success.
srp = ActiveDocument.SelectContentControlsByTag("RPI").Item(1).Range.Text
The Range.Text property is read/write. So you use the exact reversal of the code you have.
srp = ActiveDocument.SelectContentControlsByTag("RPI").Item(1).Range.Text ' Read
ActiveDocument.SelectContentControlsByTag("SRP").Item(1).Range.Text = srp ' Write

You'll see Text Box with text One Two Three, every word has VBA function given to it. Now what I want is when someone clicks any word, it tells which word is clicked.
I don't quite understand the differences between the combobox properties SelText and Text.
If I want to send the content of a combobox as a parameter to another procedure, should I send .text or .selText?
If I want to make enter text into a combobox using a macro, should I write the text in .selText or .Text?
The difference is really given in the name (SelText vs. Text) where Sel stands for Selected. One is used to return or modify the selected text (i.e. SelText) and the other is used to return or modify the entire text (i.e. Text).
If no text is selected in the ComboBox then they return and modify the same value.
I suspect you want to use Text unless you are specifically interested in the selected text.
This appears to be consistent for an ActiveX control on a Worksheet or for a control on a User Form.

control. when you select that control your gray shadding will
disappear.

Make a form with a textbox, combo box, and a second textbox.
Add a command button to save the data, one to show data, and possibly one to cancel and one to exit.
Fill the combobox with the appropriate items.
In the click handler for the save button, write the data to a file with "append".
The show data button can read the file display the text in a multiline text box or rich text box.
is it possible in design mode to set the textbox text property to the text property of a textbox in a different form in vb.net?
You could use the ApplicationSettings.PropertyBinding property of the text box to accomplish what you want. If you sort the text box properties A-Z, it should be the first one in the list in parenthesis. Just create a shared application value and it will apply to each control that binds to the value.
