Password box?

Is it possible?

Tuesday, June 21, 2005 by Xixao3D | Discussion: DesktopX

Hi,

New challenge... password boxes. I know the Microsoft Forms 2.0 TextBox has a PasswordChar option, but I can't figure out how to use it in a practical way. Every script I've tried produces an error, and I can't seem to pull the typed value from the box to compare to a stored password. Anyone have any ideas on how to make this work? If possible, I'd prefer a password field or masked text field inside an InputBox, so that it acts as a popup rather than an embedded object.

I haven't used any Textbox controls, but I made a DX Textbox object which features password masking. http://thomthom.wincustomize.com/ViewSkin.aspx?SkinID=3947&LibID=3&comments=1
