Is it possible to have a text box momentarily show the character that is input, and then hide it with a dot (or similar)?

This is for password input so that users can see momentarily, but others won't be able to.
 
Not easily - you can set a input mask to Password that obscures with **** as entered - but you can't see the characters at any point.
 
That might be a solution - thanks :)

Would it be possible to have a tick box that removes the input mask?
 
Possibly - I've never used it but apparently something like

Me![txtTest].InputMask = "Password"

will turn it on I'm guessing = Null or maybe Nothing would turn it off?
 
@Minty, you are a diamond :) Thank you.

me.txtboxname.InputMask = False switches it off, so I now have a password box that suits everyone.
