i am trying to create a mortgage program that allows the user to enter their first name, last name and a password (the password wont be used laster on, its really just for looks). what i am trying to do is i am trying to get the password field to only output asteriskses (*) instead of the text that the user inputs. can anybody help me out with suggestions / code? |

Well... you get input from the user, so instead of showing that input, take it, find the length of it (we'll call that n), and print n asterisks out to the screen. |

That's not what im trying to achieve though. first of all, yeah it would be easy to do that if i was using a simple "get" command. but i am using GUI.CreateTextFieldFull which works differently. that being said, i want it to display 1 more asterisk in the etxt box for each letter that the user inputs. |
