real password field

E

explorer

hi,
I am looking to create a password field on a form. I know you can use a
textbox control and use a password input mask. However, this doesnt work with
screen readers. Example if you use Jaws it reads the characters your typing
in the password field, not good.
However, there must be a way because in microsoft's password fields(like if
you use the database password option and a password popup box comes up when
you login, when I type into that password field it does not speak the letters
it speaks asterisks, thats perfect, same with VBA password text box, so
microsoft is doing this somehow) thanks
