A textbox will store text in the format (i.e. upper or lower case) you enter - so you should not be facing any problems in this.
Just the default text box should work correctly.

Try as below.

string MResult = "hdshdjshdjsinputhdjshdjhdINPUTDHSJHDJInputdhsdjshdjhdj";
string search = txtSearch.Text;//"input"
string replaceWith = "1234";
MResult = System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Replace(MResult, search, replaceWith, System.Text.RegularExpressions.RegexOptions.IgnoreCase);

Can you share your code? It should work, I have tested it for all cases.

MResult = MResult.Replace(txtSearch.Text, "" + txtSearch.Text + "");

MResult = MResult.Replace(txtSearch.Text.ToLower(), "" + txtSearch.Text + "");
MResult = MResult.Replace(txtSearch.Text.ToUpper(), "" + txtSearch.Text + "");
//MResult = MResult.Replace(txtSearch.Text, "" + txtSearch.Text + "");

string MResult1 = MResult = MResult.Replace(txtSearch.Text, "" + txtSearch.Text + "");
string search = txtSearch.Text;//"input"
string replaceWith = txtSearch.Text;

MResult = System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Replace(MResult1, search, replaceWith, System.Text.RegularExpressions.RegexOptions.IgnoreCase);

ltrlDataString.Text += MResult;

Don't use "MResult.Replace" because it should work using "System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Replace".

Go back to my given code. Only you have to change it as below.

string replaceWith = "" + txtSearch.Text + "";
