Solution 1

Since you are using C# it needs to be

C#

TextBoxDest.Text.Trim()

Note the parentheses.

+5. Your answer went up as I was putting mine in.

Solution 2

TextBoxDest.Text.Trim should be TextBoxDest.Text.Trim() and
TextBoxRef.Text.Trim should be TextBoxRef.Text.Trim()

Solution 3

Well, I can't now access to an ASP.NET server, so it's only a guess, but what about changing

C#

TextBoxRef.Text.Trim

to

C#

TextBoxRef.Text.Trim()

? Simple, I think you missed the brackets.
