I am currently creating a game. Everything in this game works great. To reset the highscores you click on a button and an input box pops up asking for your admin number. If the number is entered correctly the text files containing the highscores are deleted and blank ones replace them.I was wondering if it is possible to have the text change into a dot after entering another character, just like most logins do. Any help??

If the PasswordChar property of the textbox is set to a character (such as asterisk) then anything you type will display as that character.

TextBox1.PasswordChar = "*"

TextBox1.PasswordChar = "*"

More like = "•", but yeah xD

I didn't know where the "•" character was :-P

For future reference, Alt + 7 (or Alt + Shift + 3 on a Mac)

Thanks for the help. The code for this is much simpler than I believed it would be.
