Change input password string to Asterisk.

[softlover]

I want to protect some form under ACCESS2K and need input password to access the secret form. So I use codes:
InputBox("Please Input Password:")
But the input window will display the actual characters and anyone will know the password.
Can any codes to change the input characters to "*" at the same times.

It is supposed to be possible through some code (API calls), but one usually just create ones own password form, and set inputmask as "Password" on the control.

Why not using a little form with a TextBox having an InputMask set to password ?

Hope This Helps, PH.
