Is there a way to protect the contents entered into an input box?
ie..place asterisks over what someone types to protect a password.
If not...how can I prompt a user for input and protect what they enter using VB script...?? -
the later codes don't work!
why? -
Apologies.
DocName = InputBox "Please enter the documents title", _
"Enter Title", "Document 1"
should have been
DocName = InputBox ("Please enter the documents title", _
"Enter Title", "Document 1")
I've corrected the article. -
the codes with the () do it too!
it says "statement invalid outside type block" (and i always put it in the button click...)
and when i press ok it shows me the code:
Private Sub Command1_Click() -in yellow
DocName As String -in blue
and the rest of the code is ok.....
what's the problam?

What about if the user chooses Cancel?
I made a small program (guessing game) that uses the inputbox, but how would I go about ending it when they choose cancel and not get an Error? -
To end it, just add the line "exit sub" to your If statement where the string = "".

Can u use Input Box to also collect password (ie starred input) also.
I have a requirement whereby the program has to wait for input of userid and password . Input box works fine but I am not able to make the password as password field. is there any property in input box to achieve this
Or
I have to use something else. If so then what shud i use.

Unfortunately the input box isn't all the flexible. (You can't even hide the Cancel button.) You should use a custom form, it looks neater for getting 2 pieces of info anyway.
-
Suppose they just don't put anything in the box and click OK?
-
what i want is a login form, but i cant get it to keep focus like when you have a messagebox or inputbox open you cant click the main form, how do i do that??
