Hello Mike,

The easiest way to achieve this goal is to handle the KeyPress event as shown below:

[VB.NET]

Private Sub TextEdit1_KeyPress(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs)
Handles TextEdit1.KeyPress
    e.Handled = e.KeyChar = "'"c
End Sub

Please try this solution and inform us of your results.

Thanks,
Stan.
