So your question is, how to set the Text property of a TextBox?

That should work ...
Under which condition did you tried it ...
You should give us more information ...

It DOES work. And telling us "it doesn't work" is meaningless to us.

Im using dataeventhandler,

Private Sub SerialPort1_DataReceived(sender As Object, e As SerialDataReceivedEventArgs) Handles SerialPort1.DataReceived
ReceivedText(SerialPort1.ReadExisting())
End Sub
Private Sub ReceivedText(ByVal [text] As String)
If Me.TextBox3.InvokeRequired Then
Dim x As New SetTextCallBack(AddressOf ReceivedText)
Me.Invoke(x, New Object() {(text)})
Else
Me.TextBox3.Text &= [text]

TextBox3.Text = TextBox7.Text

End If
End Sub

You're talking about the Default Property of the old RichTextBox control in VB6. The concept still exists in VB.NET but not really used in the controls. It's is FAR better to explicitly specify the property .Text instead of relying on knowing what the default property is.

VB.NET

OtherRichTextBox.Text = RichTextBox1.Text

I tried it but nothing. RichTextBox1.Text get data from buffer, then it should move that data to OtherRichTextBox.

OK, there's something you're not telling us. Without seeing the code and what the variables are defined as it's impossible to tell you what you're doing wrong.

Im using dataeventhandler,

Private Sub SerialPort1_DataReceived(sender As Object, e As SerialDataReceivedEventArgs) Handles SerialPort1.DataReceived
ReceivedText(SerialPort1.ReadExisting())
End Sub
Private Sub ReceivedText(ByVal [text] As String)

Dim x As New SetTextCallBack(AddressOf ReceivedText)
Me.Invoke(x, New Object() {(text)})
Else
Me.TextBox3.Text &= [text]

TextBox3.Text = TextBox7.Text

End If
End Sub

Get rid of the last line, TextBox3.Text = TextBox7.Text.

Your code appends the data received from the SerialPort to TextBox3 and then immediately replaces the contents of TextBox3 with whatever is in TextBox7.

Your controls should REALLY be renamed to something more useful than the default names. TextBox3 and TextBox7 don't describe what these controls are supposed to be fore.

Also, there isn't a single reference in this code to a RichTextBox anywhere.

Your questions don't make any sense in the context of the code you just posted.

Thanks, it works, Private Sub ReceivedText(ByVal [text] As String)
If Me.TextBox7.InvokeRequired Then
Dim x As New SetTextCallBack(AddressOf ReceivedText)
Me.Invoke(x, New Object() {(text)})
Else
Me.TextBox7.Text &= [text]
' Me.TextBox3.Text &= [text]
TextBox3.Text = TextBox7.Text

End If
End Sub

btw whole code from vb6 which i transfered to vb.net is:

Private Sub MSComm1_OnComm()
Dim Buffer As String
Select Case MSComm1.CommEvent
Case comEvReceive

Buffer = MSComm1.Input
Text1.Text = Text1.Text & Buffer

End Select
RichTextBox1 = Text1.Text
RichTextBox1.SelStart = Len(RichTextBox1.Text)
End Sub

Do i need this RichTextBox1.SelStart = Len(RichTextBox1.Text)??? This MsCOmm and dataeventhandler diffrences so huge
