Why dont you just concatenate them with a comma seperator?

Any particular reason why you want them all in one column?

Solution 1

assuming you only have 10 textboxes on one form you can either

VB

Dim Str as string = ""

for each ctrl as control on form1.controls
 if typeof ctrl is textbox then
   if str.length = "" then
     str += ctrl.text
   else
     str += "," ctrl.text
   end
 end if
next

or

VB

dim str as string = ""
str = textbox1.text & "," & textbox2.text & "," textbox3.text
