Help. Urgent

I want to know how can I detect if a certain word is on the text Box:
For example.
I have a text1 / a text2 .
if text1 has the word "help" then text2.text="There is the word Help on
text1" else text2.text="no Word"
Thanks

you can make it by:
text2.text=iif(instr(1,text1.text,"help",1)>0,"There is the word Help on
text1" ,"no Word")
For further details, you should read the help script of keyword "InStr".

how about..

if instr(lcase(text1.text),"hello")<>0 then
'we found the word.
text2.text = "The word help was found in text1"
else
'we did NOT find the word.
text2.text = "The word help was NOT found!"
end if

Hope this helps you, or at least points you in some direction
