Fraiger, I need to add a check character, because my application calls for it, but I may be able to use an image if I can get it into the Textbox or in this case, I'd need to add a RichTextBox to add an image. What do you mean -- &nbsp;&quot;(it needs to be editable??)&quot;...? What needs to be editable?
</div>


<div>
Can you use a textbox with a checkbox control,<br />
I mean editable when you need to make the text editable by the user, <br />
or it's a fixed text? you probably need a checkbox with text label if the text is fixed<br />
<br />

</div>


<div>
No...its an image type of purpose. It simply give the user some into...it has no actual functionality other than being informative.

Fraigor, I'm going to award you the points, because its too time consuming to try to get the question deleted, but your answer was not really what I was looking for. I do however think you tried. <br />
<br />
In the end the solution was removing the special character and it worked fine.<br />

Hi, I'm using VB.NET2010 (VS2010), WinForms. I have a Form with a Textbox. At certain points of adding text to my Textbox, I add a &quot;check&quot; character, which is ChrW(10004). It works very well in Windows Vista and in Windows 7, but in XP I get a little square box. Obviously, XP cannot recognize the ASCII character I'm trying to add to the Textbox.<br />
<br />
Is there something I can do to avoid this? <br />
<br />
I thought of adding an image, but its a Textbox, not a RTB. --- I should be using a RTB and add an image?<br />
<br />
Thanks for your advice.<br />

ASCII Character problem in Windows XP

Visual Basic .NET (VB.NET) is an object-oriented programming language implemented on the .NET framework, but also supported on other platforms such as Mono and Silverlight. Microsoft launched VB.NET as the successor to the Visual Basic language. Though it is similar in syntax to  Visual Basic pre-2002, it is not the same technology,
