InputBox("test", "Notice that the stuff you type in the inputbox is represented in *'s", "", "*") And how exactly would i be able to get the text within the guictrlcreateinput? thnx If the input box has a special character to hide the text it can still be read using GUICtrlRead($Input1), it just isn't shown in the input. Is that what you mean?
