Replacing text in a String

I am a beginner programmer in VB and need help. If I have a string with a
return, how do I exchange the return with a return and tab?

Currently I am entering a string with EnterKeyBehavio r enabled so I get text
and returns within the text string. However, I need to replace the return
string with return plus tab. How do I do this?

Thanks

Toby,

There are different ways, I mostly do this kind of things just replacing the
standard ASCI code what is used for that.

By instance chr(13) is the Cariage return CR

I hope this helps,

Cor

Great but what vb command do I use to actually pull apart the text to do
this?

Thanks for your help
