You can always try this code:<br />
<br />
Private Sub Text1_KeyPress(KeyAscii As Integer)<br />
&nbsp; KeyAscii = 0<br />
End Sub<br />
<br />
This won't stop people from pasting with the mouse or menu, but will at least stop keyboard input. &nbsp;That should cover most cases.<br />

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
