Trying to make TextBox act like a Console.ReadLine

Question

I want to make a text display on a textbox according to what I type in another textbox after I press a button. I am trying to get this to happen on one Main Form several times having the thread stop at each question and then resume after the button is pressed stopping for the next question.I was thinking of using a Thread.Sleep() method but am getting confused pretty quickly being new at programming.

Hi I am a little unclear as to what you are trying to do. If I have understood correctly it should be as simple as: String strInput = objInputTextBox.Text; //process strInput private void buttonCompare_Click(object sender System.EventArgs e) { if ( strInput.CompareTo(Comparison1) == 0 ) { objOutputTextBox.Text = My Response String 1 } else if ( strInput.CompareTo(Comparison2) == 0 ) { objOutputTextBox.Text = My Response String 2 } } I don't see why you are using a Thread for this? Can you explain a little bit more what you are trying to do with that ? Cheers
