I have my input box working fine - thanks Rob ;) - but was wondering if I could mask the input text as it is for a password. I have tried the following but am getting compile codes.

Dim Password As String = InputBox("Please enter the Password to continue", "Password" [, "" [, "*"]])

Is there a way to hide the text (even by making the font white?) We're on Vantage 8.03.409a - Thanks.
Just set the 'PasswordChar' property on the text box to '*'.

I am probably being a bit daft but I don't know where the properties are for the input box for me to set?

InputBoxes really don't have any properties. I think you are going to have to code a form with a textbox on it.

That's correct, you can't assign a password property to the input box, you would have to code your own form to do that.. lots of code out on Google to get that done.

InputBoxes really don't have any properties. I think you are going to have to code a form with a textbox on it.
