show password caharacters

[Mustafa55]

When I write in find mode, Whatever I write, I want all caharacters to be shown in password caharacters (******). How can I do this ?

What are you trying to accomplish other than hiding the text.

I want to use change password script by using 2 fields in find mode, so I want the caharacters to be shown as passwords characters (***).if it is possible or not.?

Hi Mustafa55,

To accept User input, you need to use a field. It should be global fields in this case and you can either 1) install a password font on your system and set the global fields to that font or 2) use Custom Dialog to ask for user input of their password and Custom Dialog provides ability to check 'use password font'.

However, storing User passwords even temporarily into fields is unsafe practice. I encourage you to instead use the 'Change Password' script step, utilizing Security with privileges. :)

Let ( [

pw = passwordFIELD;

ast = "****************************************************************"

] ;

Left ( ast ; Length ( passwordFIELD) )

)

//passwordFIELD = your field user is entering in text

//otherfield or conditional using this calculation
