Always tag it. It has something to do with UI, so, is it WPF, Forms, APS.NET, what?!

Bad idea. TextBox displays just the plain text. If you want to show columns, it's nearly impossible to align them. If you use blank space characters it will work only with monospace font. If you use Tab character, you never know if some cell element in some column is longer than the tab length which can shift text into a different columns for a different links.

Use Grid View of List View controls instead.

StringBuilder is completely irrelevant to the topic.

A textbox is a bad choice of output control at the best of times: users expect to be able to enter data into them.
To try to use one for tabulated data is just silly: A text box can only just cope with lines, and does not have formatting instructions: just text.

Instead, look at your data and your application: use a ListView, DataGrid, or DateGridView instead, possibly a TreeView depending on your data and what kind of application you are running.
