The first thing you should do is to get the background where you want your textbox to be created.
When you want the background to be displayed again just put the get(ed) picture at the same place where you get(ed) it before.

Like this:
dim background(1000) as integer
get (x1, y1)-(x2, y2), background
' put your textbox here
put (x1, y1)-(x2, y2), background, pset
