Does anyone know how i could save a user textbox entery value and then
when the program is shut down it would save that value for the next
time so that it appears when the user start the program back up
Example:
user enters his name:Chuck
I want to be able to save the entery (chuck) so that when he exits the
program (shut down) and then start it back up again the user entry
name in the textbox would be chuck.
7  1632 
Put the code to save the info in the Form1_FormClosi ng event.

Simplest way to do that is with My.Settings.

Looks like it is. But with VS2003, this link may prove useful: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/lib...11(VS.80).aspx

Go to project properties, and then Settings and add a entry called
"name" make it a type of string and make the default value blank.
Then in your app set the default value under the form_load procedure
like this:
txtName.Text = My.Settings.Nam e
When the program closes, under your form_closed procedure, save it
like this:
My.Settings.Nam e = txtName.Text
My.Settings.Sav e()
--
That's all you need.
Good luck :-)

The My.Settings thing isn't in vb 2003. You'll have to write your own
procedure to write the data to a file or into the registry, and similarly to
read the data back in when the app. starts.
