do you mean when the app start again you want Text1 to rememeber the last enetered text? Look for the SaveSetting and GetSetting methods

Here, try this.
This uses the registry to save the value of Text1 on form unload and then retrieves it from the registry and loads the text box on form load.
Private Sub Form_Load()
Text1 = GetSetting(App.Title, "Properties", "Settings", "")
End Sub
Private Sub Form_Unload(Cancel As Integer)
SaveSetting App.Title, "Properties", "Settings", Text1.Text
End Sub

You can use this to load a default value into Text1 if there is no registry entry yet
Private Sub Form_Load()
Text1 = GetSetting(App.Title, "Properties", "Settings", "What ever you want here")
End Sub
