Generically it would be

If SOME CONDITION Then
    txtShift.Text = "DAY"
Else
    txtShift.Text = "NIGHT"
End If

I can't be more specific than that because I don't know what range of values defines DAY or NIGHT. If there are a restricted set of possible values then you would be better off using a drop down list to select the values. Can you provide more info?

Shift Range: Start Time ~ End Time

DAY -- 0800H ~ 2000H
NIGHT -- 2000H ~ 0800H

User is allowed to input any time within the range.
Example:
[Start time] 13:20
[End Time] 14:25
Therefore, shift will be DAY

Do you recommend using drop down list for this case? or text box perhaps?
Thank you.
