Morning,
On my command button I’m looking for it to copy a Textbox value on my userform & insert it into the stored code of which is then placed into another textbox.

Example,
Textbox1 has the value NEW

The command button will have a default string of HAPPY?YEAR

Basically the ? Is where the textbox value should be placed.
The code will then be placed into Textbox2

I plan to use this code on other command buttons BUT some will have characters as the stored code.

Example of stored code.
ABC@&?

Textbox4 has the value Z46

So the text Z46 is added to the stored code so when placed in the Textbox it will be ABC@&Z46
 

Excel Facts

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
Maybe something like this?
VBA Code:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
  TextBox2.Text = Replace(CommandButton1.Caption, "?", TextBox1.Text)
End Sub

I dont understand your code.

See here
Rich (BB code):
Private Sub CommandButton6_Click()
TextBox3.TEXT = Replace(CommandButton6.Caption, "EMERGENCY", TextBox1.TEXT)
End Sub

The value in TextBox1 is 999

So the value put in TextBox3 isnt 999EMERGENCY but the name of the command button which is CommandButton6

No

TextBox1 has a value of say MERRY

On the command button code is aspecial word so in this example its CHRISTMAS

So when the user clicks on the command button it needs to Copy TextBox1 value & add to special word CHRISTMAS

Then past in TextBox3 so MERRY CHRISTMAS

Like i mentioned some times special work could be (abc123,,

Then your special word must be like:
VBA Code:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
  Dim specialWord As String
  specialWord = "? HAPPY YEAR"
  TextBox2.Text = Replace(specialWord, "?", TextBox1.Text)
End Sub

It replaces question mark as you have mantioned in your original post.

Here is the code im trying as i have to experiment

Rich (BB code):
Private Sub CommandButton6_Click()
  Dim specialWord As String
  specialWord = "MsgBox ("?"),"
  TextBox3.TEXT = Replace(specialWord, "?", TextBox1.TEXT)
End Sub

The code in Red in where i mention about characters

Special word is MsgBox ("?"),

TextBox1 value is THIS IS THE MESSAGE

This becomes MsgBox ("THIS IS THE MESSAGE"),
