Re: Help with PasswordChar
It's probably a unicode character, which a textbox can't display properly. You'll have to find a font that has the character you want mapped to one of the ascii character values, and use that font in the textbox. Or, you could just create a font with just that one character in it and map it to the asterisk.
EDIT: Try using the font 'Symbol', with character code 183 ---> •
If it doesn't find it and goes to the default, it will use the passable ---> ·
