Change text

I'm making a program that changes an every day sentence into a random set of numbers and letters and then back to the same sentence. Could someone tell me how to make it when a key is pressed the text box displays a differnt character?

Well, all characters are represented as numbers in the computer. So you might be able to, say, add or subtract a certain value to every character, thus producing a new character.

You said textbox so I'm assuming your talking about some type of a windows program. Do you want it to immediately show the different character as the user is typing (EX: the user hits the 'p' on the keyboard but the text box shows 234) or do you want them to type a sentence or two and then have them press a button to switch between the two sentances?
