One solution is to programatically press Ctrl+C to copy the selected text to the clipboard then retrieve it from the clipboard:

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            //Clear the clipboard.
            Clipboard.Clear();

            //Ensure webrowser has focus
            webBrowser1.Focus();

            //press Ctrl+C and wait for process to finish
            SendKeys.SendWait("^(c)");

            // Get the text from the clipboard.
            textBox1.Text = Clipboard.GetText();

        }

I'm not sure what you are asking : /

If you are selecting all the text in one textbox then you can just use the textbox.Text property.
The code i gave you will copy selected text to the clipboard, then you can retrieve it from the clipboard and place it in a textbox. ie, the user clicks and drags with the mouse to highlight the text, then this code will copy what is highlighted and place it in a new textbox on your form.
