I want to replace "," with a ; in my string.
For example:
Change
"Text","Text","Text",
to this:
"Text;Text;Text",
I've been trying the line.replace( ... , ... ), but can't get anything working properly.

Try this:
line.Replace("\",\"", ";")

The simplest way is to do
line.Replace(@",", @";");
Output is shown as below:

This does not answer the question because quotes are not removed.
You need to escape the double-quotes inside the search string, like this:
string orig = "\"Text\",\"Text\",\"Text\"";
string res = orig.Replace("\",\"", ";");
Note that the replacement does not occur "in place", because .NET strings are immutable. The original string will remain the same after the call; only the returned string res will have the replacements.

var str = "Text\",\"Text\",\"Text";
var newstr = str.Replace("\",\"", ";");

Make sure you properly escape the quotes.
string line = "\"Text\",\"Text\",\"Text\",";
string result = line.Replace("\",\"", ";");

Use:
line.Replace(@""",""", ";");

Set your Textbox value in a string like:
string MySTring = textBox1.Text;
Then replace your string. For example, replace "Text" with "Hex":
MyString = MyString.Replace("Text", "Hex");
Or for your problem (replace "," with ;) :
MyString = MyString.Replace(@""",""", ",");
Note: If you have "" in your string you have to use @ in the back of "", like:
@"","";

You can't use string.replace...as one string is assigned you cannot manipulate. For that, we use string builder. Here is my example. In the HTML page I add [Name] which is replaced by Name. Make sure [Name] is unique or you can give any unique name:
string Name = txtname.Text;
string contents = File.ReadAllText(Server.MapPath("~/Admin/invoice.html"));
StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder(contents);
builder.Replace("[Name]", Name);
StringReader sr = new StringReader(builder.ToString());

Use of the replace() method
Here I'm replacing an old value to a new value:
string actual = "Hello World";
string Result = actual.Replace("World", "Stack Overflow");
----------------------
Output : "Hello Stack Overflow"
