Howto: x-out the entry made to a password field?

[Lidschi]

Hi Newsgroup,

I have my users fill in a password to save their form. How can I x out the
entry? Is there a way to put * for the text entered?

Thanks you very much for your help.

Cheers
Lidschi.

Hi,

tried this technique, but when I open the form back in design mode I get a
red question mark for this field saying it is not bound to any datafield. If
I try the form, stars appear while typing but no vlue is sent to my query
field. Any clues?
Thanks
Dominique

But is effectively useless since you can copy and paste into something
else and change the font.
