hi!

I know how to make a new paragraph in a textBox(\r\n) but i want to know how to use <- (back space) in a textBox and
what's the code of it?

thanks

Solution:

You can get the length of the textBox the you should substring one less than length:

textBox1.text = textbox1.substring(0, textbox1.text.length - 1)

Good Luck

You can use keypress event to check this

C#

private void textBox1_KeyPress(object sender, KeyPressEventArgs e) 
{     
if (e.KeyChar == 8) 
{         
  //backspace is used... add your logic here..
} 
}
