Are you speaking about Readonly Textbox?

Solution 2

A "writeonly" textbox does not make very much sense. If you want to make it "readonly", you could set its Enabled property to false.

Writeonly is useless. Why write something in a textbox if nobody can see it. And if nobody can see it, how are the users supposed to write something into it?

Did you see other questions? ...sigh... I don't see why wasting time...

After giving it a long thought, i think the OP doesn't want anyone to copy the data(disable right click on it), but one can write data in it. Or am i missing something.
