As André Leal said in the comments. If you define a public property in your user control you will be able to access the value.

Public Property textboxValue as String
     Get
          Return MyTextBox.text
     End Get
     Set(value as String)
          MyTextBox.text = value
     End Set
End Property

Then you can access it using code like this.

YourUserControl.textboxValue

If you don't need to edit the value of the textbox you can make the property readonly as follows.

Public ReadOnly Property textboxValue as String
     Get
          Return MyTextBox.text
     End Get
End Property
