Is it ASP.NET? Some windows application using HTTP/HTTPS? Tag the application type or UI library you want to use, explain what you want to achieve in proper detail. This is not a question. What's your problem? Where did you stuck? Ask your questions.

This here is one simple approach. Hopefully it helps:

VB

Private Sub button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)
    Dim res As String = textBox1.Text.Replace("http:", "https:")
    System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(res)
End Sub
