ANy easy way for entring password

#1

FPW 2.6 application.

Is there an easy way to 'mask' the password characters that is entered by an
user?

I have used different fonts to try and mask the password characters that the
user enters. But if that font is not installed on the user machine, the whole
thing is a wash out.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions....

Set the PasswordChar property of your password textbox to "*":
thisform.txtPassword.PasswordChar = "*"

FPW 2.6 didn't have object oriented properties for text boxes...

could not find any helpful information.

jkey.fll - that's what it was.
If you have my jUtil.fll for fpw ; that had an extension of jkey built in..
hmm. no, that was for incremental searches....

I'll dig thru the cd's tomorrow to see what I can find.
