Solved Mask a PW field on form button (1 Viewer)

[sctb0825]

I have created a Main Menu, on the Main menu I have a button for the Admin section, I have PW protected the button.

When I put in the PW it displays the PW for all to see. How do I mask or hide this PW so no one can see what I am inputting into the field?

You can use a popup form with the Input Mask set to Password instead of using the InputBox() function.

If you are using an input box, then look at this article:

I forgot to mention that Admin is a sub menu not a fill form, It contains access to several Admin tasks and Records.

Just set the inputmask for that control to Password
