Query Parameter - Mask for Password

G

Guest

I have a query that allows users to enter their records based on a User ID
and Password, which works great except that when the user enters the password
everybody can see it because I can't figure out how to mask it.

Is that possible or do I have to use a form to do it? I did set up the
password field with a mask in the table and did it in the query too but it
still just shows up without the ****'s that I specify.

You will need to use a form with a text control that has it's Input
Mask property set to Password.
If you need help post back.
