hey all....
i was wondering if there was any way when a user enters in a code it just puts the char "*" but it still has the value of the letter inputted.

code:

var key:string(1)
var password:string

loop
getch (key)
exit when ord (key) = 10
put "*" ..
password += key
end loop

This should do what you want.

haha, that doesnt work solo... i tested and it crashed hardcore Razz

you forgot to initialize password to ""

Solo · **Posted:** Fri May 23, 2003 12:58 pm

What i find really amusing is, that instead of fixing it, or offering advice, you decide to laugh, and make a dumbass comment.. it crashed "hardcore"?

anyway, just replace

var password:string

with

var password:string:=""

....

anyway, what a wonderful person in the community prince is Smile

Let's use this post to start a friendly flame war between the two of you and we can watch (I won't let Asok lock the topic).

Martin · **Posted:** Fri May 23, 2003 9:44 pm

Err, forget the friendly part. And solo, forget the flaming and start programming or I'll ban you.
