Did you try? based on the question, it looks like you did not even gave it a shot.

Few hints:
1. Date entered in textbox1 has to be in proper format and a valid date.
2. It would be a string when entered, take it and convert it into a datetime object
3. Create another datetime object and use AddYear() method of the datetimeobject to add 20 years to first one
4. Use one of the various convert to specific string format method of the datetimeobject and assign it to the textbox2.

Done. Now, try!
