How can I make a text box behave like the password box in the login. I need
to capture the key stroke that the user enters yet I need it to show as
Astrisks or round dots in the text box.
thanks
 
Select the textbox in design view.

Open the Properties window, then go to the Data tab. In the "Input Mask"
field, select "Password"

Try changing the Imput Mask on your form to Password;

Display your form in Design view, right click on the text box and
select properties, click on the Data tab and change the Imput Mask to
Password.

Properties > Data tab > Imput Mask...

Hope that helps!
