    A inputbox for passwords?

    Hello! Does VB.Net contains inputboxes for passwords? I mean boxes with the same functionality as a inputbox, but with passwordschar, so that if I type in "abc" the inputbox displays, for example, "***" or "###". Or does I have to make one myself with a form or something like that?

    Just set the PasswordChar property of the normal Textbox to whatever character you want to use and it will do that. Example PasswordChar="*" will display * for every character in the textbox.

    There were 2 API's that you could call in VB6 that would allow you to do this, but I don't think they are supported in .NET
