Hey guys, me back again after a long period of stopping learning VB. 
Came back to it to try and make my first app that relates with a website's API.  In this case, I am making an app to do what TinyURL etc do with this website's API (it's just simple  ).

I've pretty much finished it, I just need to get my app to print/input the string holding the shortened URL to a text box rather than keeping it in a message box where it is not possible to copy it.
I've looked around on the MSDN and Google but can't seem to find sufficient info.  Any help is appreciated.
The string is named, strLine and the text box, txtShorter.
If you're interested, I'll be releasing this as freeware on Asta and I'll give anyone who can help a shout out both in the About box and in the post itself. 
Thanks in advance. 
PS: I already have this for cleanliness and user-friendliness:
| Code: |
txtShorter.Clear()
'This is where the print to text box code will be
txtShorter.SelectAll() |
And the text box has Read Only set to True so that it can't be edited, but still copied. |

Oh my, 4 months of not doing it shows doesn't it? 
Thanks for the straight and simple answer. I'll be releasing it soon, just working on the About box (some stupid error throwing whenever I try to make a new form - woo!  ).
Released!
