Is there a way to take a text, from a textbox & later passwordChar the text.
I'm not using a masked textbox.
I tried:
textBox1.Passwo rdChar = '*';
but this didn't change my text. I know how to passwordchar, but I don't know
how to take a text THEN passwordchar it...Any code samples will be great!
please keep it simple b/c im a beginner

You need to reset the text in the TextBox after assigning PasswordChar:
textBox1.Passwo rdChar = '*';
textBox1.Text = textBox1.Text;

Hello Hareth,
I don't think the assignment:
textBox1.Text = textBox1.Text;
will work because it detects that it is the same and will not actually reset the text to the same value.
You could possibly try this:
textBox1.Passwo rdChar = '*'
string tmp = textBox1.Text;
textBox1.Clear( );
textBox1.Text = tmp;
This seems like such a hack but I don't know of any other way right now.

In VB .Net how do I make the PasswordChar property of a Textbox work out to
be that nice big round dot that we see in most system password fields? There
is no special character I can see to place in the PasswordChar property to
do this.
Thanks.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
