Hi Louis,
	You can use the ES_PASSWORD flag to do what u want.
	Sle1 =3D create(EditText, "", Win, 10, 40, 120, 20, ES_PASSWORD)
	Also, you can trap when the user enters a key saving it to a sequence=20
and sending the control a character at your choice.
	You're right that some win32lib examples should be added and or=20
reviewed, but you also have the Contributions page to see a lot of good=20
programs and learn from them.

Best Regards,
	Guillermo Bonveh=ED
