I'm not sure what you are trying to exactly achieve but.... I don't think you have to select insert or replace....

1. User inputs a hex value in TextBox1
2. User Clicks button.

3. Code on button click will take hex value and ???? at the moment all I can assume it is going to output the text in Texbox2 as a html tag

   Sub button1_click(sender as Object, e as EventArgs) Handles button1.click
   
       Dim outputString as String = "<font color='#" & TextBox1.Text & "'>Test Text</font>"
   
       TextBox2.Text = outputString
   
   End Sub
