And when the focus go back to text1 ?
I need the previous selected to get on clip board and past it somewhere.

The selection is part of the control text1 and text2 has also a selection.
They do not change if focus is lost.
If you want that selection is lost use the Text1_Lostfocus() event.

The transfer of selected part is done with the clipboard.
Use the right mouse button in the textbox to see a menu for it.

In any case the both textboxes has there own selection handler
and buffers for it.

Just in case you want to do in example:

public button1_click()
 text3.text = text1.selection & text2.selection it should stay selected.
end

you see why it must stay selected.
